Weird problems

ujslost · 03-28-2007, 04:13 PM

sunday on the way to the track I noticed that when I would get on my car that it sounded like the drive shaft was rubbing the tunnel. But I had the wife and kids in the back seat and a buddy in the pass seat so I thought it was from all the weight. But I have gotten it to do that like 1 or 2 times since then without all the weight.
Only does it when i stomp the gas the the car transfers weight to the rear. And today I was beating on it in 2nd and 3rd snatchin some gears hard and the wife said sounds like something is hitting back there. To me it was kinda like the axle was wrapping up to the pinion snubber. But I got a short snubber with my eibach prokit I installed a while back. So you guys think Im getting severe axle wrap or whats up here. I aint had a chance to look uner the car yet.

Only really way to tell is to take a look. Sometimes the swaybars break and make noise back there but it usually does it whenever you hit a bump or something

Check the rear control arms to see if they are loose or have worn bushings
