Unusual Tracking - 97 Pathfinder

[EpiphoneForever]

I bought a 1997 Pathfinder in excellent condition and a little over 100K on the odometer, no history of wrecks or repairs. When accelerating the rear end makes a noticeable side-shifting motion. Visual inspection of the entire underbelly reveals nothing unusual. It feels like the rear axle wobbles, or a panhard bar is loose, but, there's no obvious signs of anything mechanical that's out of place. It has new tires and doesn't seem to be based on tire wear. The vehicle is totally stock and was previously corporately owned and used as a company vehicle, so I wouldn't expect unusual driving conditions. Can anyone shed any light on what this might be?

Look at the bushings on the lower rear control arms, I'm guessing those are shot, a typical problem with those Pathfinders with that amount of miles. Not terribly expensive, kind of a pain in the ass to change.

Basilcy you need all the rear bushings ... upper and lower arms as well as the track bar ....and new shocks !! You can try and do just a few , but in all the ones I have done , they always come back soon with the others worn .... we just do them all now ...!! And yea, they are a pain !!
