    Axle makes engine wobble??

    About a week ago my i started to feel a vibration behind the pedals on the floor. so i jacked up the car and saw that my axle in the D side was done for, and the outer bushings on the sway bar also . I replaced both of them ,took it for a test drive the vibration became worst. Jacked it up again turned on the car and put in gear and nothing. so i jacked up the car by the lower control arms to create the scene of it being on the ground on both sides, put in gear raised the speed and bam felt it. went under the car and saw that the driver axle was pushing the engine forward as it is rotating.i need to fix this by today its my DD and need it for work.

    Maybe the axle shaft needs balanced? I don't see how it would move the engine at speed, but not at idle. If something is off, it should be off the whole time. Maybe the engine is a little out of balance or misfiring, not allowing it to be smooth??? Hopefully someone has a better answer than me.

      Well when i had the tires hanging in the air while jacked the everything runs fine but when its back on the ground and run it the problem comes back. Also the engine looks as if its sitting a little forward, i realized that the axle pulls the engine back as if its trying to align it self.

        That is definitely weird. Are your motor and transmission mounts good???

                Valid question. Anything that could possibly affect the balance of the shaft, you need to check.

                  hmmm mabey but if it was a wheel weight shouldnt the problem be happening all the time. it just does it when on ground .when the wheels are hanging down when lifted the axle turns fine. idk i just have a big ? mark over my head.

                        I might've missed it, but are you auto or manual?
                        Auto has a very long drivers side shaft, and it has a rubber counterweight on it. Manual has a half shaft, and then the CV axle.
