12-bolt Break-in question I searched about this problem but I didn't find an answer.
I recently had a 12-bolt installed with several other mods. When making very sharp turns (like when parking), the wheels don't seem to want to turn at different rates. The tires scrape against the pavement, and the car shakes. I've put maybe 230 miles on the 12-bolt so far. Is this normal during break-in, or does it need more fluids, or what?
Thanks for any help.

Hmmm...I just did a search and it looks like these problems around tight turns will always be there in a spool rear end. At least it won't be as noticable when I get some drag radials on the car, and I'll take comfort in the fact that my rear is pretty damn strong.

If this is a spool, you will definately be dragging the wheel around the corner. That is what a spool is designed to do. No give around corners, locked up 100% all the time.
