Rear sways on decel
 
I've noticed when im crusing in 5th and 6th when i let off the gas i can feel the rear sway left and right. I don't know if it does it under hard acceleration, but its becoming a concern for me.

check the lower control arm and panhard bar bolts, I had them loosen up on me once or twice

shake the car from side to side ... do you see the rear move? i had the bushing wear out before the bolt was tight but the poly bush was gone allowing the rear to move side to side..

How are the shocks and sway bar?

I've seen the stock swaybar endlinks break right in half, that's a good thought

The shocks looks fairly new, and the paper work from the last owner shows they were replaced only a few months before the said the motor blew which would be last summer. I'm probally just going to replaced the sway bar links just to be safe, and install my bmr control arms. HOPEFULLY that will fix it

turns out my LCA bolts were loose, most likely from when the rear was replaced or so i was told. Intalled my bmr lca's and relocation brackets problem solved
