Hey I recently dropped my 1992 LS on skunk 2 coilovers and a few thinks have come up. It starts to vibrate at 45 and starts to get stronger all the way up to 80? at slower speeds i sorta feel like i have a flat. and even last night while i was driving it did a 5th gear pop out!?!?! thats never happed before either, so im really confused about that. Now when we were lowerin the car we did notice i needed a rotor on the front passenger side but i didnt feel anything before. We lowered the car an inch from the bottom on the coilovers. also the vibration is so bad i can feel it in my gar pedal when press it but it will go a way the depress it. Please let me know your thoughts thanks!

wheels should be torqued to 80foot pounds. the pre loading should be hand tightened while its in the air and then when its lowered a quarter turn

if it was a cv axle then his car wouldnt drive anywhere cuz only the busted axle would spin not the connected one.... i found that out first hand while racing one day and my axle snapped while shifting into 2nd. but yes i would get the rotor fixed first.
