My drivers side axle came loose/out while making a turn. WTF???? The drivers side axle is super loose, comes right out. Passanger's side has some play and the Diff makes noise when I turn the passanger's side axle. Literally I was driving and when the car stopped moving, the axle was about four inches out. What does this mean??? 1990 Trans Am, 305 TPI. Not sure what Kind of Diff, But I LITE both of my tires up... Or at least I did... Oh How Sad.

It means you should do some serious investigating before you drive the car again. The following may be helpful:

Okay, so I open up the Diff Cover and Viola!!! A C-Clip. I put in a Open Diff/Rear End (Entire Rear End) I aqquired. This is so I can continue to drive the car for the mean time. Now I would like some information on to why this happend? What should I do? I would really like to fix it, as I'm not a Fan of The Peg Legged Burn-Out!!!
