So my car has been shifting, as in pull to the right then automatically hard shift to the left, and i can't figure out the problem...i already did an alignment and well the axles are clicking..i just ordered my new axles, but if that's not the prblem then can you guys give me ideas of what else it could be? thanks

Try replacing the front LCA's that "jerking" in the rear is the diff. Completely normal. Don't know if you remember when we did the trade but I told you it was either the alignment, or the LCA. Maybe your buddy at Godspeed can hook you up with a new aftermarket set.

The rear axles are fine.. trust me. The diff is set at 2 way right now. I believe it is adjustable so you can always go have it set to 1.5.. but I doubt it'll take away the chatter. Try replacing the diff fluid.. a friend uses OS Giekens diff fluid and said it reduced chatter alot, can give that a shot.
