Rear end moves around from bumps...

not sure if i'm parinoid or what but I have started to notice that when I hit some bumps the rear end seems to yaw or shift to the right. more so at low speeds, also a few times I have pulled her hard arount... say a right corner and if my rear right tire hits a bump its seems to shake or vibrate for a second. hard to explain. either way its disconsurning. cant see anything unusall under the car (i'm not all that expiereiced anyway). thanks for any ideas on what this could be.

sounds like you need some subframe bushings...or spacers=) your bushings could be worn so there is gap or play for it to move around

I'd get coilovers before strut bars, they probably make the least noticable difference by themselves. I'd get sway and coils first if I were you.

subframe spacers are less than 100 dollars and that would probally fix the problem your having...atleast most of it.
