ok, so when I let off the gas and its still in gear, it proceeds to make violent loud shaking, if its in neutral theres no problem. putting it in 4wd makes no difference, maybe slightly more viloent but not enough to notice. I did check rear drive shafts and everything from the front to back. even walked with it while it was driving slow. As far as I can tell it sounds like its coming within the tranny. "WOuld it bind up and make the car lurch and jump with loud clicks and metallic noises?" yes it does this but not a CV click its a Boom click. liek u see the car shake with the boom. (People stare at me going down the street, Weirdos) I dont think the diff would effect even if swapped out cuz it does it when its not in 4wd. I tried this though today.... I jacked the front end up with a couple of jacks and started it up and put it in first gear and let the wheels Idle in the free air ( This is a Subaru diagnos technique, I think and so it still does it.. Almost like theres somthing in tranny like a bad gear. though it does it in all gears. ( I know its not the CVs.. no noise is coming from them and theyre new!) Ive had bad cv's and ran them with a different sub till one blew. Im familiar with the CV noise. I dident do the engine swap, I bought the baby from 100 bucks and I repair the head gaskets. any idea?? thanks for the help so far!!
