If the Axle is straight, it looks like it may be your rear Hub amight need
rebuilding with new Wheel Bearings.

Mike,

Sounds like you have found your problem, and even if this is not the initial
problem you found another serious problem that will need to be addressed
before you hit the open road.  

Yes, sounds like a bent axel and once it is all apart you should see the
root of your problems.  Don't stop at the right side, get this thing apart
from hub-to-hub to make sure it is all OK before you drive.

Any idea how you might have done this?  A hard slide into the curb on turn
#3?

Good luck,
B

Took my driveshaft off and had it balanced with new U-joints.  That wasn't
the problem.  Still jerking forward when I go backward.  Jacked entire car
up, and the rear brakes aren't binding.  When I put the 3 in gear on stands,
the rear right wheel had a horrible wobble, even after trying 3 different
wheels.  Loud clicking sound, and some noticeable play.  Is it axle?
Differential?  Any thoughts are appreciated.  Thanks, Mike Newhart
