Put it back and road tested
Well yesterday I went to the GM parts dealer
in Little Neck Ny nice place and quiet.
I bought 2 cross pin shaft bolts 4 quarts gear oil
and 2 10 bolt gaskets..
THe next moring nothing to do but stare out the window
at my car ...its been almost a month now.
I said what the heck...I put back the axles back
and spider gears cross pin and new bolt then cleaned
the cover up and filled it up
ahhh but this time I put the used LS1 driveshaft
hoping to get lucky and my problems would magically
dissapear. NOT lucky at all..
The knocking is still there around the shifter area .
When I put my foot down, same as before over 1500 rpms
she starts knocking ...let off the gas and she stops..faster
I go faster she knocks every once in awhile she decides not
to knock but then it always comes back like the plague.
Also the right wheel still has the wobble no matter
what axle I use so maybe its the axle bearings
I am waiting for new ones in the mail with new seals.
Other then this I will be picking up a used rear with better
gear ratio for performance...Im gettng good at breaking
her down and putting her back together anyway...
Now Im thinking maybe its the torque arm and panhard
I dont know its just a guessing game.
Later guys have to go to my other job now..
