so motor/trans mounts fixed everything thanks everyone for the help!!
for anyone else tackling this job easiest way to remove mounts it to undo sway bar, use a scissor jack from a honda place between power steering rack bolt and slowly move the sway bar forward till mounts come out.

That driveshaft hanger bearing is a real PITA it appears you have to dig pretty deep with MB to get the correct 32mm bearing!! I had the same issue as you and I think you did the right thing by just repacking the old one. Its just not worth the hassle to get a MB parts guy that knows their **** to get that right bearing. It took me weeks to sort it out.... but im not in the states so...
Get this once I got the bearing it was still the same part number as the 30mm bearing.... No wonder nobodys got a clue about it...

BTW I have a slight grinding noise from standstill if you give it just the right amount of throttle...(not sure if its grinding)... more of a bearing rolling noise kinda... still not sure what it is on my car either. I just thrash the **** out of it in town now trying to make it fail... whatever it is. Everything under the car looks sound.... so im thinking diff or transmission... maybe torque converter.

motor mount, have a buddy power brake teh car in drive up to 2000rpm, if the engine lifts up about 2" theres your problem, mine was blown on the top. huge difference with new mounts.
