When im WOT and shift second gear, there is a loud thud and something nobody else seems to understand, almost like a loud metallic squeaking as i slam second gear. Also if im on the throttle as i make a left hand turn, there is a weirdass clunking or knocking sound coming from what seems to be the right rear end area.. Any ideas? i dont want something falling off while im driving!!!

TY

might be rear driveshaft bolts being loose, my 94 had loose bolts and made a clunking noise well shifting gears.

Could be your transmission mount.

Oops, didnt see the thing about it coming from, the rear end. I have heard of the driveshaft bolts loosening. Jack the car up and take a look.

mine does the same thing, i suspected the U-Joints in the driveshaft, or the tranny mount, but i still have not checked it.
