Either your lug nuts are loose or your wheel bearings are worn out.
Loss of traction in the rear wheels of a vehicle is called spinning, sliding, drifting... In NASCAR terms, loose.
no you should get more power to the rear wheels
Rolling wheels have more traction than sliding wheels. Thus you have more control. To illustrate; If you were in a turn and either locked the brakes or accelerated too fast the rear wheels loose traction and the rear of the car starts to pass the front of the car.
I assume you have already checked the trunk to make sure nothing is loose and flopping around in there. Next look under the car at the rear axle to see if there is any obvious sign of something broken or loose. Also check that the lug nuts are properly tightened on both rear wheels.
In most instances both rear wheels. However some older cars only lock 1 rear wheel.
Only the front or rear wheels drive the vehicle and not both.
It is what the rear wheels bolt to.It is what the rear wheels bolt to.
You can channge them one at a time,if you only have the stock jack, but a good floor jack and jack stands are recomended. Make sure the vehicle is on a flat level suface, chock at least one front wheel, loosen all of the lugs on both rear wheels. Jack up the rear axel so that both wheels are off the gournd, release the parking break, remove both rear wheels, the drums are free floating and can be removed by knocking them back and forthe with a deadblow hammer. then pull them off the same way the wheels were removed. If they stick there are two threaded holes on each drum to thread bolts in this will break them loose.
No. At least with rear wheel drive without posi track only one rear wheel drives the vehicle. Not sure if there's a drive wheel or if both wheels pull the vehicle on a front wheel drive. It's hard to find rear wheel drive anymore. It's usually only produced now on sports/muscle car models if at all
The foil in front of the rear tires is there to proven air from getting under the rear tires and causing the tires to loose traction.
On most cars the handbrake is applied to the rear wheels only. The footbrake applies to both the front and back brakes, with a bais to the front to help avoid the rear wheels locking up under heavy braking.
It could be from a worn out U-Joint on the drive shaft or it could be one or both of the rear wheels are out of balance.
