My '88 Supra. Sometimes, if I turn the wheels and come to a stop, when I go to start off again it feels like something is loose in the rear end. It's like a shift from one side to the other. This car has the LSD option. Of course, I crawled around under the car and everything is tight. I need to bleed the brakes, and probably need new pads and rotors for the rear, but that will probably wait until spring. When I do lift the rear end, I'll check the shafts, but when I had it up last year they seemed fine. A cursory check shows boots OK, no rips or tears. I have access to another LSD rear end. The current one is full of gear oil (fresh drain and fill last summer) with a proper LSD additive. When I first did the change last year, it went away for a short time. I checked the level the other day, and it is full. Maybe I'll try some more additive...?

1) Sell the car. 2) Pick 10 songs that scare the crap out of you. 3) Pick up the bass and learn them.

Rear end problems?

Hedgehogs are easy! As Scott would say:

Don't know about you, but hearing "health care" and "rear end problem" in the same thread gives me the heebie-jeebies.

The only thing worse would be to hear "Congressional probe" in the same thread.

I wish Scott would have been available....

Advice to parents of young children - never ever buy a hedgehog. They are fragile, disease prone, and not all that much fun.

I thought you were kidding when you said you had a hedgehog. Does it roll like Sonic the Hedgehog?

I think that's what they were hoping for.

Basically, what you're getting is a porcupine without quills. God made a cruel joke...

I have heard the theory that every creature on this planet has a purpose and place in the balance of nature. The purpose of some creatures is a little harder to figure out, like hedgehogs and ferrets...

Didnt you see the ACORN tapes.. Your rear end can be classified as a hemorrhoidectomy, and you can replace your gears and your car and everything else since this is an industrial art.

Do I have to go to an ACORN office?

But, yes, DEFINITELY an Industrial Art.

Now that you mention it, maybe I can have this done:
