Vibration when pushed on highway
I have a vibration if I floor my car while cruising at highway speeds. Normal cruising is fine its only when it gets that hard downshift and starts pulling. I suspect its pinion angle since its lowered a lot on coil overs and I don't have an adjustable torque arm. I have UMI adjustable rear control brackets I haven't installed yet either. Any ideas? I kinda think its pinion angle.

Re: Vibration when pushed on highway
The car had a complete restoration and rebuild so its hard to say with just being lowered. I added an adjustable panhard bar Ujoints are new as well as the trans was freshened up. Im only suspecting pinion angle cause it was about the only thing I didnt account for. The rest of the suspension has poly bushings and all moog steering parts.
