I rebuilt it, nothing is bent. I welded in a new core support and frame section. Also replaced all suspension parts including sub frame and steering rack. I have put probably 500 miles on the car since I did the repairs and seen 120mph + with no problems until this axle BS.

Probably not it...but did you ever get a front end alignment after all that suspension work?
Some people overlook that and having it all aligned makees a huge difference usually.

Yes, when I finished it the car was way out of alignment as expected. Got it aligned at Sears and everything was cool until I decided to see what she really had .... which was just enough to kill an axle .... now all these probs

Called Pepboys today. $69.99 + $50 core ea for remans ... they don't have new ones. :7

UPDATE: So I got a chance to talk to the store manager and told him the whole story and that I was less than satisfied with not having any cores to turn in elsewhere and so he refunded me $45 for ea core :o

So I went to another AZ location and they ordered me some NEW ones no problem ... supposed to be here tuesday :6

Awesome. Hopefully the new ones stop your shaking.

New axles are in and car runs smooth :y

Just nice smooth acceleration with some turbo hissing, then a bump in the road, and some scraping sounds ::)

What are the scraping sounds?
