motor/tranny seems to wobble between 25-45 accel and decel. noticed problem after i did some work, car also bottomed out repeatdly while driving due to lowered suspension around the same time. work done was timing belt, swapped a driver side fluid filled moter mount for an older model solid mount, and intake camshaft. trying to fix i have replaced worn out harmonic balancer, axles, intermediate axle shaft and swapped wheel/tire sets. have also exchanged old worn out cut suspension for coilovers. was told by gearbox transmission that it sounded like it was frame/alignment/suspension problem and that if it was transmission a noise would accompany or problem worsening rapidly, i have expoerienced neither. please help.

Hi preludebuilder,

Check the axle shaft inner joints for wear and lac of lubricants. They would cause imbalance and vibration when accelerating.
