I just did the short belt on my '02 Aero manual. I haven't notice any increase in vibration that others mention. I have the Taliaferro poly trans torque rod bushing. I actually think it feels smoother. I put in a new tensioner as I figured the old one would have been subject to a different sort of stress and maybe the wear would create resonances with the new arrangement. I like it though it is a tight fit at first.
