i'm thinking CV Axles... check em for damage/ holes in the boots

if not...then it may be in the trans....

since our trans' don't come with LSD, when you accelerate, naturally the shorter axle will turn before the longer one... but the only time i notice this is from a dead stop... going in to a roll, and only on my 93 with auto... the steering wheel turns in one direction... the 00 with 5 speed doesnt do this at all

check your tire pressure and alignment. rotate tires. Just some ideas instead of replacing or fixing a trans that might just be fine.
