Ok I got a 1995 mustang 5.0 ho. Got a few questions that's been going on. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated. 1st when driving just cruising it gets pulley sometimes like jerky what could be the cause of this. I know I just changed the clutch and where the crossover mount is only one bolt is there the other bolt has broken with no nut. Could this be the cause if not what could be please any thing will help. 2nd question. I got a slight sqeek constant just driving it sqeeks just changed the breaks thinking it was that but is still squeaking any suggestions? Thanks y'all

Let's try and narrow this down. First things first. Does it feel engine or suspension/chassis related?
Secondly I would hate to think that your trans crossmember it's only held in with one bolt. Fix that asap. Like don't even drive the car.

Your transmission is most likely bouncing around with only 1 transmember bolt. As stated fix that asap. Drill out a new hole and put a bolt and nut on there.

Squeak? When on braking, acceleration? turning? over a bump? Need more info.

Got to fix the transmission as mikestang63 stated. Be careful when drilling a hole though.
About the squeaking, gotta give a more specific information, about when exactly it occurs.

Black1987 · Oct 20, 2015

Just to clarify, is it missing a bolt on the cross member to the sub frame or trans to the cross member? Secondly the squeaking, did you check the pilot bearing during your clutch replacement (also did you get a new or resurface the existing flywheel)? If the squeaking goes away with light pressure on the clutch pedal, then that could be the cause. Have you checked the codes?

Ok sorry just got all yalls comments, and I really appreciate y'all trying to help. I'll try to explain more in this message. Ok, the weird feeling when driving only happens occasionally and it's almost unnoticeable it's just like a vehicle when having torque has a little pull to it. So I'd say it the chassis not motor wise. It's just like for example.. ( someone is learning to drive a 5speed there jerky at times and that's what it will feel like just cruising ) idk exactly how else to explain. And ok I'll defiantly get another bolt on that crossover mount! Could that be the cause of the jerk the transmission possibly bouncing around?
Ok now the squeak. It just is a constant squeak worst when applying the breaks but occurs no matter what when tires are in motion. Straight/turn everything. Sounds like it squeaks as the tires turns.. I can post a video if that would help with suggestions? Be waiting on talks replies. Thanks everyone!!

Ok I changed the bearing and the whole 9 yards when doing the clutch. And I did not get a new flywheel. But it looked in good condition gave it a slight sanding. But the squeak was happening before replacing the clutch. And on the crossmember I'm not sure how to answer that. There is 2 bolts in the center? And 2 on the outer sides one on each. It's one that is in the center that's broke without a nut? Thanks

squeak = speedo cable if it follows speed and varies likewise.

is the motor stumbling?

You've most likely got a worn brake pad or shoe that's down to metal. That will cause a constant squeak that gets worse with brake pedal application. .

408ciBoss · Oct 20, 2015

Just changed the breaks there all brand new. And Speedo cable? And stumbling what do you mean exactly?

stykthyn · Oct 20, 2015

A video would help a ton.

408ciBoss · Oct 20, 2015

Ok video on the squeak and the jerky feeling?

On that jerking feeling, is it at a specific gear? Specific time, like when you let off the clutch?

stykthyn · Oct 20, 2015

408ciBoss · Oct 20, 2015

No it can be any time any gear it will feel jerky.

89oem · Oct 20, 2015

As you speed up the squeak speeds up a little and slow down it slows, when youre stopped even reving the engine no squeak.... sometimes once the car is warmed up and going for a while the squeak stops intermittently, the speedo cable is is squeaking in its casing... happens especially after you pull the trans, simple test... unhook it from the speed sensor on the trans....

Engine stumbling, like its misfiring....

or whatever that is stykthyn posted

old_blue · Oct 21, 2015

If you didn't resurface flywheel I would say the jerkyness is there. As for the squeak, possibly throwout bearing. If you put a little pressure on clutch does the noise go away?

Or brakes, possibly a locked up caliper rising rotor?

It's only an inch or two. What's the big deal?
