Clunk when stopping

[Lee21490]

So to revive this thread from the dead again..

 

Update: Just swapped in the 8.8 today, Drove down the road & I no longer have a clunk when stopping.

 

But now have a new problem, New axle is making weird sounds.

Sounds almost like when drum brakes are dragging a little, But really loud & pretty much only when you have your foot on the gas. Put it in nuetral / let it idle in drive while going down the road & it stops making the sound.

Yep, I know the sound.

 

R&P I'm afraid.

 

Pinion bearing will sing.......not a low level howl.

 

 

 

BTW......my D35 did that for a year, so I don't know that it's an immediate curse......just something you'll eventually have to deal with.

Isnt that a b*@$£ to do yourself & a ton of $$$ to have a shop do?
