Rear End noise/clunk after changing ABS sensors

[Bob Kunkle]

My issue still exists after I changed changing both the front left and the rear ABS Sensors. The truck still shutters the petal between 30-20 MPH while stopping. Do I need to disconnect the battery to poosibly clear a code?



The truck has started to do something new though, there is a clunk(new) in the rear end that sounds like a loose universal joint but it isn't loose. It is almost like the truck bucks like a horse.

While stopped, If I enable the parking brake, then put the truck in neutral, I can turn the drive shaft 1/4 turn in the rear differential. Is this normal?

Sounds like you may have lost a tooth or 2 off of the pinion or the ring gear in the differential.

I got a call from the shop. They say I broke a tooth off of a spider gear and when it skips a tooth the VSS/abs picks up a different speed then the front and my ABS kicks in. I have to wait until Monday for a price on this repair.

bob if you have a non limited slip, now would be a good time to install a locker...

I have a limited slip 4.10. Cost for gear replacement, oil, and labor was $240.
