Noise in the rear end
I recently changed all three U-Joints in my rear driveshaft because of a noise my truck was making. The noise sounds like something either rattling or clanking together, its most noticable at lower speeds when Im coasting, or when I am releasing the clutch. I thought I could recreate the noise when moving my driveshaft so I changed my U-joints, took it for a ride and the noise was still there but much more quite. What else could it be?

Possible a loose pinon bearing. when I went to change my pinon seal the nut was very loose (hince force the leak) when I reinstalled the tourqe according to the manual was 160 pretty tough. could not hurt to check. the book also said to check the endplay and when the job was done ensure you have the same endplay. Since mine was loose I tourqued it to spec and so far no problems.
