Just a few questions for you 4wd guys, Do you have slack on your slip yoke when you gas it at high speeds? By that I mean, lets say you are cruising at 70 mph then you let off and then you just stab the gas do you get a clunk? I've started noticing this but I cant remember if it was there before.
Second question do you have slip yoke radial play where it splines? I have some movement before it engages the splines and hear a thump, best way to describe it is like the play you have in the rear end, when you turn it and the slack is taken out from the spider gear and ring and pinion if that makes sense.
I'm asking this because I noticed my Tcase seal started leaking and I just started getting this funny vibration at high speeds, 70+ and it keeps on getting worse the faster I go. Ujoints are fine, when I coast its even worse, It not the tires as I've only experience this floor board vibration when the DS is not doing too hot. I have one of those early slip yokes that pop and bind when you hit the brakes to a stop.
Just thought I'd ask before I get into it, its not hubs or cv shafts, I replaced those weeks ago when I decided to level the truck. Thanks in advance!
