Wobble when shifting weight

Alright so i when i drive around in my coupe with stock arms and Isis coils and a welded diff, the whole rear end of the car shakes when i shift and basically any time im transfer weight to the front end quickly.. A friend of mine said it might be axles. Also, when im driving straight i have to turn the steering wheel about 40 degrees to the left to stay straight because it's pulling to the right pretty bad. I did an alignment on the fronts because i knew they were a little off, but its still pulling just as bad. Any ideas? Thanks

Oh yeah and on certain surfaces i can hear either the front or rear passenger tires sort of dragging when i go straight. I can hear the tire squealing, but i don't know if its front or rear.
 
if you lowered your car a decent amount then tried to adjust camber with your stock arms(or aftermarket) the toe will be out alot in the rear thats why you are hearing the tiire squealing . raise your car enough that the stock arms can still align the car or get aftermarket arms

that would make sense, its pretty low, and the rear tires are cambered in a bit. i just got it so i havent done anything really. I also picked up the isis susp. arm package from enjuku so i'lll put those on and adjust everything, Thanks for the info
 
yea put the susp. arm kit on n get a full alignment not just the front when i lowered my s13 i noticed the car would just sway constantly, i had to buy the rear toe kit before i got it aligned cuz the stock arm wont adjust to far. Did the alignment n nomore sway.

lol how about u quit being ignorant. i know how to do alignments myself, i've been busy working and i wanted to see if anyone else had any ideas regarding axle problems because a friend of mine had brought that up. I plan on putting on the arms and doing an alignment when i get a day off. i just wanted to see if anyone else had any experiences like this and what it took to fix it.

You obviously did an amazing job on that alignment. Driving around with the tires squeeling means the toe is right on! An alignment would tell you what is bent, or where to look. That's why I suggested it.

If you don't want good advice, put it in the thread title or something.

"If you have a clue, don't post in my thread"
 
Lol he just doesn't know the situation and was being cocky by posting the most obvious thing to do. Like I haven't thought of that already.. And i had read like 5 other posts fro
Him saying dick things so i was annoyed with his posts.. But anyways I only aligned the front cuz i didn't have a lot of time
 
Check tire psi in the rear since you have a welded diff this will greatly affect a cars pull if one of the rear tires is lower than the other has happened to me when i got a nail in my tire then check alignment

By aligning the front, do you mean you set the toe with a tape measure? That don't count.

Also, when you ask questions, it's usually because you've tried everything you can think of, and you're stumped. It's not my fault you're doing it wrong.
 
yea its hard to say 'i already did the alignment' but then say 'i didnt have time so i only did the front'....

thats like saying you built a house but never had time to put the roof on it and then asking us how to stop getting rain inside.
