Thread: help! I'm stranded in paradise, update

So I was driving to my sisters house in the keys and I finally just got here,
.
It all started off with a flat tire (that I probably drove on for 40 miles), it was the drivers rear and I finally noticed the steering wheel shaking in a certain pattern (it shakes all the time)
.
Then the jack was missing from my trunk, so I waited for AAA for an hour (also the donut had no air)
.
Got the car to pepboys (only thing open at 8pm the day after a holiday)
They had to cut the tire off it was so messed up, it had a slow leak,
.
Back on the road $120 later (stupid low profile tires) finally made it to the 18 mile stretch and then this is what baffles me, I swear the road was messing with me at first, it felt like I had a flat front tire but I kept pulling over and checking it, so it started getting worse and worse,
.
The car then started veering to the left and then that kept getting worse, so I slowed down and then everytime I would let off the gas pedal it would veer to the left so bad I was in the other lane or in the grass (going 40)
.
So I'm guessing my drivers axle is broken? The boot is not ripped and no grease has leaked out.
.
What else could cause this?
.
I have no tools with me and I'm 220 miles from home, help
.
What should I do?
.
My g/f is sick of my cars breaking on me so she is probably going to make me sell both of them, and get a new car (boooo, hopefully I can get a nissan at least) (unfortunatly I don't see the point in putting 50,000-70,000 miles a year on a new car)
.
I've been trying to figure out what has been causing my steering wheel to shake, I've tried ballancing the tires, changing the tires, changing the rims, and all front suspension components are good, maybe the axle is the cause?
.
Sorry, car is 1996 200sx se-r manual trans with lsd 204,000 miles on body, 2nd motor, original trans-new fluid(7000 miles), axles were replaced approx 25,000 miles ago

sounds to me like a broken axle or a bad diff

Do you beat the car on your daily drives? Your front mount was gone and beating on this with a totally gone mount will mess the drive line up real fast.

I have never beat on the car, and I haven't even spun the tires since I replaced the engine.
And I have semi-solid mounts (front and rear urethane insert mounts, urethane filled side mounts)

i would really check out the axle

Since the car is pulling to the left when I let off of the gas that would mean the drivers axle right?

these things arent as good as they should be replace them and things should change a little

I call them semi solid but they are just worn out stock mounts that I filled with urethane from a caulk gun, they have not cracked or anything since I have put them on

The garage I just took it to said it could be a wheel bearing, does that sound right?

o.k.
