Root Link2SD made me unable to re install apps after SD corruption

OK so I've been searching the internet but couldn't really find a solution to my problem because the phrasing is so specific. I have a Virgin mobile victory 4g lte phone that i recently rooted. I used CWM recovery to setup a partition on my 32 GB SD card, and proceeded to flash a custom rom and download link2sd pro. I linked all the 4 file types (including the "internal data" cuz i have link2sd pro) of a bunch of my non essential apps. everything worked great for a few days and them all of a sudden my SD card started removing itself and re mounting over and over again. after about a day of that it just totally fried out so I removed it and formatted it.
reformatting it didnt fix the card...its still shot so im planning on just getting a new one anyways. little did I know the card was only a class 4 which is probally why partitioning fried it. ANYWAY enough of the preliminary stuff. now my problem is that ANY app that i previously had linked on the SD card will not re-install. it just says "insufficient storage available". I went into my application manager and there ware applications for every one of the links I had made before, but the icons were gray androids. I figured these were the problem so deleted every one of them but it didnt do anything. I have plentty of internal storage (over a gig) and when i go into link2SD now the apps that i removed no longer show up, so i have no way to remove there links. its a really annoying problem and i made a nandroid backup but it wont show up in TWPS so id really like to fix it an easier way:/
 
Try going in link2sd settings and select clean up. Also delete the mount script for link2sd and do it over. Its in system/etc/init.d
