I have light shudder when on the gas (fuel) hard and there is amsoil syn in the rear end with a hymag cover. I also have a clunk when I come to a stop and when I first take off from a dead stop. Any ideas of what I should check first?
did you ever get your problem worked out? I have the same problem only it has progressed to a constant shudder when on the fuel, and stops when I let off and clunks anytime I move my foot on the pedal. I dont know if this would be the same problem or not, but I figured I would try and post here first before I start a new post. thanks for any help
well, I got under the truck today and with it in neutral the axle will turn about 1/8th to 1/4 turn. it has alot of slack in it, this is on the pinion, not the u-joint so I am thinkin my issue is something with the ring and pinion. guess I will take to the shop tommorrow, thanks for the reply
I had Bronco that did the same thing. It was the u-joint although it felt tight. Once i took it apart 2 caps were greased well and 2 were nothing but black dust/dead needling bearings. So the 2 good endcaps made it feel tight so you couldnt tell the other 2 were bad.....fixed the problem.
