It is difficult to tell from the way you described it but when I owned a 489SG it was quite a bit harder to break away one axle from the other. All I can say from what you say is that your SG works somewhat but may be on the way out. The 489 style is difficult to rebuild but can be done. It has ben described on this site before how to do it. Requires a machinist with some know how.

essentially what you are doing copies the factory test that is done in the car. I think yours measures a little low but not too bad. I don't remember what the spec is though.
70 Cuda, 7.0L Gen-III Hemi, Viper T56 w/9310 gearset, 3.91's, Megasquirt MS3x v3.57, Innovate wideband, Firm Feel upper arms, torsion bars, springs and strut rods, QA1 DA shocks. I did everything on this car except the fancy paint stuff and I drive it...and I can't seem to stop messing with it....
