I have a 1999 cobra with a t-45 when I switch gears it bangs by the center console and it shakes. When I'm driving after 4 gear 60 mph it makes this weird noise and it vibrates as I release the gas. Do you guys think its my driveshaft that's bent. Messed up u joints.? Your help would be appreciated thanks.

Check the u-joints both front and rear. Also check the IRS housing mounts and transmission mount.

+1

Check the front & rear diff bushings. when the front diff bushings get worn out it causes the center section to sorta float and do wierd things.

Also, are you experiencing any rear bumpsteer ?
