At idle my steering wheel slightly vibrates and when i take off my manual tranny shifter kinda jiggles. Is this my driveline angle?? How would i go about fixing this. Thanks

Wow, having angels in your driveline is better than the demons that most of us end up with! But really, when you say at idle, do you mean when you are not moving or when you are just starting to move from a light?

It could be driveline angles, an unbalanced driveshaft or bad motor or tranny mounts

At an idle your steering wheel shaking is most likley form the vibration of motor
the shifer giggilin is most likley the torque of the motor
motor and trany are bolted to the frame via rubber mounts which vibrate, twist, and shake
whatch your shifter while your driving down the road and you will probably see it moving, espessally when going over bumps
its all normal stuff


oh s**t I think I ran over a Honda.

at idle your driveline is not rotating so i dont think that is the cause of your vibration. could be engine timing

beligerence doesn't justify intelligence.
