Default Jerking to the left while accelerating...

Latley its been getting stronger and stronger. As im accelerating hard, right after I shift (when it goes back into gear and I get off the clutch) the car jerks to the left. Its been getting a bit worse latley. Anybody have any ideas?

how many miles on the car? sounds like a problem with either tranny/LSD, shocks, alignment, tires...make any noises? does it straighten out after you get it into gear and accelerate some or does it continue to pull to the side while driving?

hmm...no expert here but it could be your lsd. but you lsd going out wouldn't cause your car to jerk that drastically.

maybe you can check your alignment; if your are toeing left, right, etc.

take this with a grain of salt...i am no expert

the car has 35000 miles on it. No real mods just a header/cat/axel back. Othen then that no real work on it. 205/50/15 azanies but I dont think that really matters.

lol... to answer the other question there is no noise. Usually I just hold the wheel and after a second it straitens out.

Quick question... As it is jerking, does your hand slowly start turning red? Real men jerk to the RIGHT!!!


Just kidding. No offense intended...When I saw the post, it couldn't be helped
