    Cool car shaking really bad

    I have a problem w/ my car around 60mph, it starts shaking really bad when I give it some gas. As soon as I left of the gas it's fine. What could that be, mayb the axels

    ^^Tires don't do that when you let off the gas.


    You, sir have bad CV axles. Do you have a B series swap? If so the intermediate shaft bearing need to be checked for play. If there's no up and down play, you need to check for play in the CV axles themselves. And while you're at it, jack up the wheels and check for bearing play. If there's up and down movement, you have bad bearings. If there's side to side play, you have bad tie rods.

    K series 626. That's right. It's got a K in it.

    Yeah, most likely the CVs are gone and not turning true when you accelerate. Should be a simple fix.
