Sink/Jerk-Pathy?

Hello forum. I have a little odd problem with my Pathy. It's just enough aggravation to worry me. When I'm driving down the road and let off the throttle, I'm getting like a slight jerk and feels like my Pathy is sinking down in the rear end.?..Whats up with that?..Peace.

No idea. Get under there and start moving things to see what's got slop in it. It's largely impossible to diagnose seat-of-your-pants problems over the internet.

Yeah, It's hard enough to diagnose it and I'm the one driving/working on it.

Maybe you have already found and cured your issue. If not I would check rear lower and upper control arm bushings. The fact that you feel any movement when stopping torque to the rear end indicates movement in these or other rear end stabilizers.
