Grabbing the Driveshaft and moving it back and forth, it moves about 1/2 - 1" I'd guess and I can sort of replicate the sound by doing this. It sounds like it's coming from the trans itself.
Unsure how much free play is allowed in the driveshaft
I don't have a lift so trying to look at everything under the car is PITA...
I would get it up in the air and look at the center carrier bearing.
the bearing itself should be fine, but the problem is the rubber going out.
and if you can move the driveshaft easily 1/2" - 1"
should definitely check.
and would clunk every time you out in gear if out, because driveshaft was under nonload, then in gear and brake on, the driveshaft jolts in stress.
Jack stands, blocks and ramps.
I have put some 2x10's on 2 good railroad timbers and drove right on.
I have some 14" bridge timbers, I thought about cutting one in a wedge, and have some 14" tall and 14" long ramps.
I wanted lifts for along time.
we are looking at a house atm, has a 88x44 shop spilt into two areas all concrete already, wife said "in the automotive side you can get and put a 2 post lift there and a 4 post lift here"
why YES I can
