Exclamation Not sure what to title this?

Every time I make a hard left or right turn under moderate acceleration the inside tire of the turn lights up. Is that normal? I have a 1998 Camaro Z28 A4, stock everything. Also when I do burnouts only one side is spinning.

Your LSD (limited slip differentional) is worn out, you can try a diff fluid change, just make sure you use LSD fluid and see if that helps to renew the diff.

ohh Idk since probably September, now I have a bad howling in my rear end on deceleration above 30 mph.

I plan on putting in new axles, 3.42 gears with a Ratech installation kit. What gear weight should I use for the fluid change?

Well my rearend is pretty much done with. I need all new bearings and a place will do it for about $400+ $150 in parts...not worth the $550 to me so I'm getting a one from a scrap yard with 60k miles and 3.73 gears over the stock whatever I had.. for about $320.. All I have to do is transfer all my parts to the new housing and I'm good to go until I can afford 9"

Depends if you have ASR(traction control) or not and what type the replacement rear is. If you do you have 4 channel abs and you can make either rear work with your old parts. If you do not and have 3 channel abs only a 3 channel rear will work without some headaches. Do a search for 3 or 4 channel to get more specifics.
