Help!!!!!! okay, so last nite i was driving around a turn goin probably 25-30mph and then i hear a loud banging noise form the back of the car and it shakes, after that it started happening in every turn and sometimes wen i wasnt turning... i figured that i broke another rear but i took the diff. cover off and everything was fine, checked my axels and theyre fine, and nothing looks out of place or broken.....does anyone have any ideas?

I would say take the carrier out and check the internals out. Sounds like something inside it is crapped out, i.e. spider gears or clutches.
How much driving have you done on the carrier that's in there (seeing as you said you've broken it before)?
And also another stupid question, are you running the limited slip additive? Not doing that by accident made my ten bolt act really weird once. It actually acted about the same as it did when I broke the spider gears, loading and unloading one side tire in a turn, popping and banging, etc, granted it wasn't as extreme.

haha. I had them grenade on me before, and he is describing my exact symptom i had when mine grenaded... It was bad. If he did not add the GM posi additive when he changed the fluid with a stock posi unit. it will feel like the spider gears are gone.
