dr fang Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 Hello chaps, my brumby/brat ute has just developed an alarming noise from the gear box ? area.. It goes clunk clunk clunk in time with the speed i am travelling. engaging the clutch, or putting it in neutral and coasting stops the clunking. As i type this i am thinking it may be a universal joint:confused: a happy easter to all.N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveT Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 It goes clunk clunk clunk in time with the speed i am travelling. engaging the clutch, or putting it in neutral and coasting stops the clunking. What does it do with engine brakeing vs acceleration? I had the pinion bearings fail in a 4WD wagon - If you let it coast or engine brake it made horrific noises. I Drove it home by always keeping a little gas to it while stopping. Took it apart, the pinion was moving forward into the differential carrier but while under acceleration or up hill, the forces held the pinion back, so it ran ok. There were chunks of metal carved off of the carrier in the bottom of the case. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 Check your inner axle joints. Probably worn out. GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralDisorder Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Almost certainly the DOJ on one of the front axles. GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
