What causes the car to vibrate/shake when turning either right or left at low speeds and upon acceleration from a complete stop?

Hi, it sounds like either a drive shaft or a viscous coupler is having problems. Since this car is all wheel drive you might need to put it on a rack to test. You will need a factory manal to follow the step by step to trouble shoot the problem. Sometimes, or one more of the tires is coming apart can casue a vibration, please check it out and get back to me.
