Subject: Re: It was the U-joints after all! by BeachBum on 2009/1/10 3:16:17 For what its worth, drag racers go through those needle bearings like popcorn. Many bring along an extra to the track to change them out when necessary. I replace the joints a minimum of once a year, sometimes they need to be replaced multiple times. As a note, this is not a unique problem to me, but all racers running the 36 or 44 IRS.... I know this isn't helping you on why yours went out, but you should know, this is a common problem and quite frankly, acceptable to most racers.....(would prefer them failing vs something else back there) btw, I'm guessing you were hearing a clicking sound when you drove it that was faint, but increased with load. |
