All stock.
Today when leaving the house (after 5 min idle warm up) it felt like the emergency brake was on. I pushed clutch in and checked and the brake was off. I then left for store. All good except....when pulling into parking spot in first gear, a huge rapid bang bang bang and stumbling vibration - felt like the tranny was gonna fall out the bottom. I pushed clutch in, truck idled fine. After getting my wits back (scared crap out of me) I Let clutch out and truck acted like nothing happened. Went into store, drove home all good. Truck has new front motor mounts, under a year old. . Rears I haven’t changed yet. Thoughts?

Re: 51 f1
That sounds terrible. If the sound you heard was made while you were turning into the parking spot, I wander if you have an issue in the rear axle, like a chipped tooth in the spider gears?
I am sure more knowledgeable mechanics will be along, but If you are pretty sure it’s in the driveline, I would drain the fluids looking for metal in the gear oil or bottom of both cases. JB |
