my 89 305tbi AT is shaking in the rear end when i am ideling. it shakes so much that it moves my whole body. does any1 know what the hell this could be??? any suggestions are welcome

 

Could be trans or engine mounts. Those would be the first two i would check.

 

Is the car running on all cylinders??

Is it missfiring??

How does it run in general??

i dont think it has anything to do with my engine or transmission. It is coming from the back of my car but still makes the front shake a little bit. I noticed that it started doing this right after i replaced a few light bulbs on my car. could this have anything to do with it? i dont see how it could make my car shake that much

 

I think It still could be one of the mounts, maybe the torque arm is loose?

 

Well, my buddy has a torque converter that was really screwed and that caused his car to do the rear shake at idle..
