Rear end help

I just finished installing my newly rebuilt 44 and I am having a problem. If I drive up the driveway dead slow the rear end kicks out after about 10 feet. I took it for a spin and the rear seems to be very loose. Does anyone have any ideas, I am pulling my hair out.

Thanks

Fred

Thanks Pete, I'll try that tomorrow as I am very pissed tonight. I haven't driven the car in a month.
