just put in a new trans in my 67 bug. however it seems that the right side axle or something is loose once i shift. it occurs more when i don't give it full throttle that is more when i lug it. once i get to speed it runs alright i have tightend all the bolts and nuts down twice and don't have a clue as to what is loose. any advice as to where to look thanks.

Are you using "sway-a-way" axles or stock? Also make sure the drum is fitting snugly over the teeth in the axl.

Thats a head scratcher, but Id definately check the torque on the axle nuts. These babies gotta be really tight, and if there loose itll knock around like mad. (also dangerous)
