Lee21490 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Started to notice lately, whenever i go up a steep hill & have my foot a little into the gas and hit a slight bump, It feels like the whole axle is sliding out from under me, Like its twisting sideways.. Everything seems to be tightly held together o.o What would cause this? 4.0l Dana 30 or w/e comes stock on a 86 manche idr lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ftpiercecracker1 Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Does the truck move in any unnatural way? I am having a hard time visualizing exactly what is going on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Check your leaf spring and shackle bushings. Then get a 3' cheater bar and tighten the crap out of your U-bolts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comanche County Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Check for cracked or broken springs too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 ^^^ Most definitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deziped Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Not unusual to hit a bump under power and have the rear of a light weight vehicle kick sideways, sometimes called a skid. Pikes Peak comes to mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
