Odd ticking noise and vibration

Clay_Lucas · February 25, 2016

Coming from mid to rear of truck. Ticking kinda like a lifter noise or gravel coming out of tire treads.

Couldn't get the drive line to move at all, so I don't think it's the u-joints. Started as a tick every once I'm awhile to a squeel and now back to a constant tick and vibration.

It is only when in gear and moving. And then only when I'm on the gas.

I've checked everything I can think of, anyone else ever have a similar problem? Could really use some help on this..

Well I was just asking a friend about it.

Usually I can get a little movement by hand and this time it wouldn't budge.

The rearend on this was fairly well worn when I put it in as a temp fix until I could do the 14 bolt conversion. He told me it's probably bound up so tight I can't get it to move.

I'll open it up tommorow and see what it looks like. Might be a good time to do the other rear end cut/welded. I'll be ordering the conversion u joint tommorow.
