Hey,
Something in definitely wrong with my rearend, Driveshaft.
It Is making alot of noises and clunking when i shift, Also when i step on the gas and let off right away it will make a loud clunking noise.

I did the carrier bearing fix with silicone from www.vfaq.com
But the clunk is still there

It has been getting worse lately,

its the stock 3 bolt rear end

Any suggestions on what to Try to replace? or anything that could be the problem.

Thanks in advance

:talon:

When i left off the gas it starts making this crazy clunking / grinding noise...I have all new u-joints / carrier bearings and it still makes the noise...it's soo bad for me..I just throw the car outta gear..I have mine down to either a bad Transfer-Case or Rear end!! it's gotta be...LOL...I've replaced everything else...What a nightware my POS is!!!

Last Night i Put Redline shockproof in my transfer case, and it helped so much it eliminated 80% of the noise and clunk. (my old fluid was very low and i never changed it until yesterday)

I am going to change the rear Diff Fluid and see if that makes it 100% better.
 
Yea, I'm actually going to be changing my transfer case / diff fluid today! Good luck man..dan
