Default Rear Question,

I did do a search, just didn't find anything similiar. Stock 10 bolt with ta girdle, with 3.42. M6, My question to you is, when i am decelerating in a gear... say for example 2nd ... and its getting around or under 2k it starts to bark and you can feel it bucking and can hear the rear clunking... what could be the cause?. is it just because its a cam car and its starting to surge? what would be the clunk? thanks for any advice... My pinion seal is toast (leaking), I am going to change it this week, thought i would mention that

depending on your tune, camm'd cars can buck under 2K. mine's and auto and will do it coasting with the converter locked (which is similar to riding a gear in an M6 like you are describing)
