It's also getting louder so I am trying to avoid driving the car but am at college right now so I am in a tricky situation. I have a video that shows pretty clearly how it sounds.

Welcome to the group, there, Bencauley8007 -

Yep, I reckon the rear axles are shot.

I suggest you take it into a shop and have them fix it.

Also, I would suggest you un-lower it an inch or two.

Meanwhile, focus on your studies.

(I hope you aren't majoring in mechanical engineering - )
