[QUOTE="J. Olenko, post: 1018160, member: 68163"] After a quick trip to the place that did the repair initially and after a chat with the owner and a test drive, he concluded that it was the rear u-joint. He replaced the u-joint and took another test drive. The noise was still there. He then concluded that it must be the front drive shaft because there is a CV joint at the shaft where it meets the transfer case and that must be the problem, he thinks. Now he said that item is not rebuildable and therefore another front shaft with cv joint attached will have to be ordered for about $350.00. The problem is he said that he is not entirely sure if that is the problem. Although he said once he takes it he'll know immediately if that is the noise problem. If it isn't, then back to square one. Anyone else with any thoughts particularly about the drive joint cv joint. [/QUOTE]
