Ok guys my rear end is vibrating real bad when i go around sharp turns, It feels like wheel hop. Like exactly like it, it started doing it a little while ago, i checked my driveaxles, the rears were fine but the drivers front was shot, i just finished replacing it last night and i took it for a little drive to see if that fixed the problem, but no, it still vibrates and shakes the rear when i pull any sharp turn with gas applied, if im just cruising around a sharp turn it dosent do anything, turns on the highway are fine, but of course they are not that sharp. Its usually when im pulling a left or a right and put some gas into it. I think i fried the LSD in my rear end. About 6 months ago my t-case locked up on me and my rear end locked up completely and i slid about 100 ft. I think it might be in connection to my rear end being messed up now. any other idea's on what could be wrong? Also if anyone reading this has a rear end for a 98' GSX for sale please PM me with details. I am interested in buying one. Thanks guys.
 
well, when i think about it, this is what i imagine.

in a sharp turn, the inside wheel is spinning considerable slower, and there is an abrupt change in speed.

you said your rearend is perhaps fukked? mabye,
if its your lsd, when the axles are spinning at different speeds, it might do that.
