Driveshaft Detonation

Yes the flange can be replaced no problem....$30-40 part

Thanks Al. Going to go out and throw the exhaust on and take it for a ride and see how it feels.

Well, took it out and hit the highway. Brought it on the airport connector for a little spirited run and had zero vibration. Looks like I am good to go. Still want to swap out the flange on the tranny as one of the "holes" for the coupler sleeves is worn on one edge. Anyone have a part #? Thanks.

Wow Gary . . ..I don't know how I missed this thread. Glad to see you are up and running again. Did you notice any vibrations as of late or do you think the nut loosened and all hell broke loose at once?

Thanks Juan. No vibration. Took the car out for a spin to pick my son up and on the way home, cruising along at 40 mph it was like a bomb went off. Fortunately I was able to pull over right away. Funny thing is that when I went to the dealer to order the SRT bolts, a friend that works there came over to chat and when I told him why I was there he told me that he was presently working on a police Charger that had loose front bolts. Not sure if this is a current problem. I never took the driveshaft completely out when I put the Getrag in so that eliminates that. Should be fine now.

Thanks Gabe. Still want to chage that transmission flange out as one of the insets for the coupler sleeve is worn on one edge and I don't want to risk it.
