Torque issues? 900 1993

I experimented and shimmed mine both up and down looking for the "sweet spot" where the drive shaft shudder stopped. As I recall, the support bearing is mounted to a bracket that in turn is mounted to another bracket in such a way that they can be shimmed either up or down depending on where you put the washers. Once you get access to the underside of the car, it's pretty easy to do.

I went to the local hardware store and bought a handful of washers. It seems like they were around three eights or seven sixteenths in size to allow the bolts to fit, but it's been awhile. When you look at the mounting, you'll be able to tell the size pretty easily.
