During my last few runs at todays Marina AX my car was doing some strange stuff. During downshifts the tranny felt weird and right rear wheel would hop. Any ideas?

CV Joint?  :confused:

Doesnt feel like a CV joint. No typical clunk clunk. It only does this during hard downshifts. And rear wheel literally hops in the air, with strange tranny feedback (feels like something is bouncing around). I was too tired to crawl around the car today. Will put it up on jack stands tomorrow to figurre this out.

I have new tranny mounts. I was thinking maybe motor mount was loose, but I couldnt find anything with quick crawl under the car.

I did notice I could move the right drive shaft back and forth a little (horizonital movement back and forth about 3/4 inch of free play) left one doesnt move. Is that normal?
