I have another question.

I am getting some serious vibration in the back of the car. Is there a certain way the drive shaft should bolt together or does it just bolt together? that vibration was never there. after 30 mph, she just shakes and its just in the back of the car so im assuming something with the driveshaft.

yes you can bolt the driveshaft in crooked. the rubber "biscuit" (vibration isolator) can be a little strange when you're bolting the driveshaft to the diff. look at a picture of the driveshaft in the FSM to see which way the bolts go, and also make sure that when you bolt it in, that the driveshaft splines are seated securely into the diff/biscuit.

Also on the vibration check that the carrier bearing is installed correctly and the spacers are where they should be

^what he said

check and make sure the adjusting washers are inbetween the driveshaft and body

NOT between the bolt and driveshaft
