Just about every time I step on the gas to accelerate I hear a loud slam under my car. Sounds like its coming from the U joint in the drive shaft. Any thoughts?

Bad Carrier Bushing?

Differential bushing is known to wear out quickly in these cars. I have replaced mine twice in 85k. The second time I put in the urethane one from creative steel and used their tool to do it so that I could handle the job myself and save the $800 the dealer wanted. Highly recommend the upgrade even if yours is okay.
