Just looking under my mates EA which was having some weird clunking/vibrating happenig underneath.
The rear uni jount seems to be completely shagged. Now It's a bit different to the EB setup, but you know how there's a steel bar being held in by 2 bearing cups (and this is how you undo it), well that steel bar has completely snapped. In fact the only thing holding the tailshaft to the yoke is a split pin. How should we fix this? New tailshaft, replace uni, or what? Cheers, Dave. |

I can just tell now that that's going to be a bastard job...
I bet the old 'bits' won't wanna come out. Any tips...? |

Hmmm, just took the tailshaft off, and it's not broken I think.
Seems the bearing caps that sit on each end of the uni are just stuffed. I still think this would be the likely cause of the driveline cluncking though, so best to replace. |

do you mean clunks when going in gear?
like, my clunks when i DON'T apply the brake and put it in reverse... but if i apply brake, shift in to reverse it won't clunk... every other gear seem's fine. |

Nah, clunks when you apply then accelerator, or when you back off.
Also get some weird semi clunking/vibration thing happening when cruising with the clutch in. Fairly sure that's it, because it has a LOT of play, in all directions lol... |

k yeah so do you think it's the uni joints? any other ideas? i might change mine for the sake of getting rid of the clunk i sometimes get when i put it in r or d... but main concern right now is the consistent knocking (not 1 knock, but it's consistant knocks) when pulling up (braking or not, doesn't matter) so if I change the uni joint or whatever you said in the other thread, i hope it fix's it! it's driving me crazy

Well not sure about you case man, could be the diff or anything.
Check the lower rear shock bolts that they are tight. |

i checked my unit joints out today... if the 'any play in it' then it rooted? i can move it rotating wise and back a little bit... and sounds at the same time like gears ingaging or something...
hmmm and my bushes are screwed... like dried up, and cracked lol... time for nolathane now that i know what everything i need 
i checked again and there is the slightest movement of the uni joint and tail shaft

Replaced the uni, went for a drive and it's all fixed.
