I just put a 350 in my car a few weeks ago.What a big difference from the 305!I went 2 take off yesterday and herd a clunk it felt like my seat broke.Has anyone ever had this problem.The transmission mount isnt broken.Its like something broke on the drivers side. help please

 

Upper shock mount?

 

Trans mount....

 

How did you verify that?

 

I had this problem before on my old 86 IROC, found that the motor would jump, and found out why my motor mount did not have a bolt in it; the upper mount was off a 6.2 DIESEL, on a 305HO, I was like wtf??? but was able to get a bolt in there, too much work to switch out the motor mounts.

 

I checked it plus when its broken the stick comes up (5speed)
----------
could it possibly be a shock

 

Okay, that's the first mention of a 5-speed.

I had a rear upper shock mount poke through. Good place to start looking.

 

Bad torque arm bushing or broken torque arm bracket?

 

when you push down on the back of the car it humms and sqeeks loud by the springs

 

make sure the squeaking noise isnt the brake lines rubbing..i thought my shocks were bad because i heard a squeaking nose, turned out to be the brake lines

 

Rubbing brake lines arent fun, and neither is flying uncontrollably through an intersection suddenly...that was maybe the singlemost scariest moment of my life.

In case that one went over your head, rubbing brake lines = hole in line = loss of fluid = partial loss of brakes...unless you pop every brake line going to ever wheel, then you have zero brakes, lol.

 

THANKS GUYS it was the torque arm bracket right after i heard the loud cluck i parked it so do you think i could have damaged any thing else?will my springs quit skreeching when i push down on the back of the car? just asking cause i havent replaced it yet
