common problem?

[vandol]

went ahead and ordered the guibo/flex disc, nuts/bolts, and CSB.

Only to find out that when i get everything out of the way the guibo has

a hairline crack and the back half of the driveshaft is loose?



chipped u joint?

the problems that occur when on the road are crazy vibration

at certain rpm and clunking on shifts slow or fast.

Diff bushing seems fine,

the rear part of my drive shaft flaps around..

how's your driveshaft center bearing looking?

Which means that you need to replace the drive shaft.

exactly. u joints fail from time to time. i'm battling the same issue right now. you can go the cheap route like i have many times just to stay on the road (junk yard driveshafts/rear halves) or get one rebuilt for $400 locally.

i already bought a new one, the rubber was torn, the remaned drive shafts already come with one though..

yeah i dont think i wanna get under there again for a u joint, probably have to bite the bullet and buy a remaned..
