I posted this in the driveline sub then found I probably should have posted here instead. I have a 2016 Silverado with the 5.3. I have a clunk/pop (feels like it’s coming from the rear end) when accelerating or coming to a stop. I read somewhere about the u bolts not being torqued right but found a range on the internet for anywhere from 70 to 90 ft pds for them to be torqued to. I went with the low end and did 70. It took at least a full turn on each nut to get them to 70. Now it seems to have gotten worse. Do I need to torque them more? Or is there something else I should be checking?
