| Post subject: | 75 Dart noise in rear. |
I have a stock 75 dart I have noticed a noise, kind of a squeak in the rearend over the past few weeks. Today I was out on the highway and suddenly at road speed the car started to lose power and then pick back up, when I let off the gas there was a bad rumble in the rearend. Any advise as to what to check first would be greatly appreciated. I have checked the oil in the rearend and it is fine, but I don't know what to do next. Thanks James jsbgraphics1@netzero.net |

Now you can inspect the u-joints and rotate the readend around by hand to be sure the problem is back there. If the rearend seems tight or "crunchey", pull off the inspection cover and/or the axle shafts for a look, or just start looking for a replacement unit. DD |
