U-Joints

[Halen5150]

Whenever I take off from a standstill, I hear two or three "clicks" coming from the rear of the truck somewhere. Is this a sign that the U-Joints need replacing? I have about 85K on my truck right now.

Yes, possibly a tell-tale sign ....But easy to check by pulling the shaft to inspect the joints

My S-10 U-joints went bad and it was really noticable when backing out of my drive , coming to a stop then putting into drive with my foot on the brake. It was a loud crunch, crack, nasty ol' sound.
