pop pop pop pop, and no, its not coming from the microwave

Keeping in mind that everytime you fix one problem , 3 new problems com up and replace it, today I fixed my dome light, key light, drivers side rear speaker, and motorized antenna. So I wasnt surprized today when I heard POP POP POP POP come from the back of my car today while making a right hand turn. LSD Any one know exactly what this is and how to fix it?

If you think it’s the LSD, have you checked the fluid level? Have you tried just changing the fluid in it? When was the last time it was changed?

Jimmy54, wasn't talking to you.

But now I am, were you having a slow day yesterday?

You just didn't seem up to speed on your normally informative posts. My favorite was your reply was ".".

dbb280zx, what did you figure out?

Are you sure it wasn't coming from the transmission.

It sounds like it could be the transmission mounts. Jack her up and then have a look at them. One might be broken. They are cheap and fairly easy to replace (from what I hear)

Good Luck.

Sorry it has taken so long for me to get back to this. Can only assume that it is the diferential b/c it only pops while turning right. Lack of fluid does not cause popping but damage caused by lack of fluid does, so I guess what I should have asked is what is there, in the diff or rear axel that will pop while turning?
And Wow, does jimmy54 usually have outburst like that? thats kinda creepy
