ahh yea the clutch could have something to do with his problem, an unadjusted clutch say after a few miles could result in a loose clutch. therefore he might not notice goin down the road, but maybe not enough to hold full pressure when not running. i know it sounds silly, but they put a park brake on vehicles for reason, you cant always rely on the inner workings of the drive line to stop the vehicle from moving while not in opperation

But what you have to realize is that a loose clutch could not cause the problem discribed. That's all I was saying

right i understand that, i was just making a statement, but as for your clunking, could be your ring and pinion having to much backlash

From what little I do know...I would not think the clutch would cause these symptoms either. Ok so while attempting the ujoint replacement, I had the pass. side in the air. I decided to do the tire rotation while looking at the ds for rotation trick, well there is DEFINITLY something not right there. I can rotate tire close to 1/8 turn before the d.s. attempts to rotate. If I rotate tire back and forth,(not enough to rotate ds) I get that same clunk sound. I swear it sounds like it is coming from pumpkin...Hopefully my neighbor will offer his jackstands so I can do this hopefull fix tomorrow Thanks for all the responses

GT topLESS, I'm also thinking you need a diff rebuild (good time/ excuse for new gears). I had a rearend clunk at various speeds- usually turning. I replaced driveshaft & diff before discovering that the bolt slots had elongated in the rear lower control arms.

Your thread was reading like a novel. What's the last chapter?
