I broke what appears to be the front diff mount on my NA project car a few days ago while tuning. Now there's a loud *** clunk from the rear whenever I go to engage the clutch.

try shifting into 5th gear before shifting into reverse, Ill bet you it helps the clunk.



used to have to do this on every Mustang otherwise it would grind reverse, since then its a habit of mine.



keep me informed, everyone I tell it to doesnt believe it until they do it.
