Driveline Slack

BurnmstrJ · 07-19-2013, 01:39 PM

Hey guys,
So for two weeks now I have been noticing a "clunk" when i start from a dead stop or from reverse to 1st. The only mod I have is JB4. My first thought was too much play in the Driveline and maybe replace the u joints. ive been reading though that we dont have serviceable U joints. Is this accurate? Would it more likely be the driveshaft or the diff? Any help provided is much appreciated!

More info. In gear and application of throttle or when changing gear? Fast across the gate or slow?

Cant really help out much....could be u-joint/drive shaft or differential. Take it to an indy if you are out of warranty. could be brakes due to the floating calipers if during braking.
