hey guys i have seen some posts about having to mod the center drive shaft mount when lowering. Can anyone expand on that or offer some pics on what to do? just noticed a bit of vibration since lowering. Also has anyone tried adding spacers between bracket and body with extended bolts? just something i was thinking of but didn't know if it had been tried or if there was an easier way to remedy the vibration.
usually adjustable trailing arms like the ones from nolathane help correct pinion angle on the driveshaft

if it's IRS there is no change when lowering as the diff is solid mounted to the chassis.
some commodores have spacers fitted between the chassis and the drive shaft center mount. when lowering some people have just removed the spacers.
correcting the pinion angle is also a good idea but most don't bother

hey its a irs model and hate to sound like a noob but whats the adjustable trailing arms? and what they look like? juts so i know what im changing.
if it's IRS then there is nothing to modify. for the IRS set up the diff is solid mounted to the chassis so the drive shaft alignment doesn't change when the car is lowered.
the top trailing arms are for cars with a live axle rear suspension set up which is completely different.
