Just a side question on the same topic, how much play in the driveshaft is acceptable for determining if there's a u-joint issue. Mine moves a little bit, maybe like a half-inch or something. Not a ton but enough that I can hear and see it clank.
For reference I'm getting the clunk when I let out of the clutch in first or reverse unless I let it out very slowly. I'm trying to figure out if it's a u-joint issue or the slip-yoke needing greased or something. I'd rather try the u-joints first if there's a decent likelihood that it's the issue. |
