Agreed.
My rear end seems a little loose also. Noticed it in the first snow.
Trutfully I do NOT like the way the car feels in the snow and rain on the corners... Still got original meats on the back and some replacements on the front.

OMFG, there is something about this post I find very funny but disturbing, is it just my sick mind or what. Plus the title of the thread alone is funny.

I totally agree there is a weight balance issue on these cars because when they were designed GM just added a few inches to the A body chassis and came up with a make shift independent rear suspension system. It is totally inadequate. Put bags of sand in your trunk it will help.
