I'm probably just going to keep posting in this thread as I find more things.. 
If I keep it in gear while slowing down (~5-30km/h) the car seems to jerk back and forward. More noticable in the lower gears and speeds. Could this be transmission mounts or some bushings somewhere?

My old Sunfire used to jerk back and forth a little under slow speed engine braking at a certain RPM, but I had poly engine mounts in it. (FWIW)

Cousin's shop ended up closing so I lost out on using the hoist. 
The guy with the dyno and hoist is now moving locations and since he's a friend I should be able to use it for free, but only if he's around that day... otherwise I'm going to ROTAN to do it ($15/hr for hoist). Better than doing it in my driveway, which is impossible with 4 cars in it

That's why I don't drive mine-nothing breaks :laughhard
