drivetrain noise

my car is getting vibration on acceleration..


put my car on stands today, took off the front wheels, started it and put it in drive.

i hear and feel this clunk, clunk, clunk..
I don't get this when driving..

see my left disc spinning, went to the right one and it turns a little after a clunk..

so i am thinking its my right driveshaft.. well i tried the procedure again, and the reverse happened.. right spins, left one spins a little..

i also saw them both spin together.. they spin slower then..

the sound sounded like it was coming from a differential..


i don't know what to do.. anyone know of better tests?

not sure of any reasonable tests but have you tried changing or at least checking the diff fluid level?

well, when my drivers axle popped out, the dealer put it back in and they told me that they did add more diff fluid in there...
my pass one was replaced about 3 years ago.. it was really cheap.. cheapest i could find..
it doesn't have the dynamic damper on it..

i am guessing its my axles, but not too confident. the rubber on the boots looks good, but i get a lot of play at inner joints going up and down.

tomorrow i'll pull one out to have a closer look.
