    Front end noise

    At this point I'm thinking I either need to have my front shaft rebalanced or buy a new shaft. I found a remanufactured shaft for $400 on eBay and new shafts are proving very hard to find. Question is, is it worth chasing issues with the stock driveshaft or should I just replace it?

    Well the noise was gone for a few weeks and then came back with a vengeance. I pulled the driveshaft off again and it seems like the ball joint in the centering yoke is sticking. It's making me think the angle is off after putting the 2 inch lift in and it's causing the centering yoke to wear...

    All u-joints and the centering yoke have been replaced and the noise is gone! When I got the old centering yoke off, the spring was broken into a few pieces and the part was pretty worn in general. Thank you all for your help!

    I took all the u-joints out but I didn't see a spring anywhere so that must have broken and fallen off or something. I'll look into ordering a new centering yoke

    Yeah I had all 4 up in the air but I didn't try it in Loc. Once I replace the u-joints in the front driveshaft I'll test it in Loc and see

    Thank you! I thought I was in Hi-Loc cause it felt like the end but I just had to pull super hard. The truck drives now and there are no weird sounds so it was definitely the front drive shaft. Is there a chance it could be the u-joints or do you think I need a whole new drive shaft?

    I removed the front driveshaft but now my truck won't move at all.. She'll roll in neutral but no driving forward or reverse. Any idea what that means? I was under the impression that removing the front shaft would just give me a rear wheel drive truck

    Okay thanks. I'll try that and see what happens

    Sorry, I'm referring to this yoke that joins the axle at the u-joint

    Yeah I've got the chrome tin covers. Currently no plans to change them out but that may change. The pinion only wiggles a little but only on the driver's side.

    How would I test this?

    The driver front yoke does have a little play in it! Is that bearing replaceable or do I just need a new yoke?

    I put the truck on jack stands to see if the front diff was working and it is but the rear wheels started spinning instantly whereas the front was delayed and much slower. Is that normal or is something up with my diff?

    Yes I have the NP203 with always locked hubs.

    I'll look into this. I've been considering replacing the hoses anyway so I'll probably just put some longer ones on to play it safe

    From my research, stock hoses Should be long enough with a 2 inch lift but I've been thinking about replacing them with longer hoses just to play it safe.

    The u-joints on the drive shafts seem fine (no play at all) but idk how old they are. I replaced the axle u-joints this spring which is when I replaced the bearings as well. Also my hubs don't lock

    I didn't replace the e brake cable.. I didn't even think to check that!

    I put the wheel bearings in back in May and didn't have any weird noises until a couple weeks ago

    I'll take pics tomorrow morning. What should I take pics of specifically?

    I somewhat recently installed a 2 inch lift on my 76 K10 a long with 33x12 tires. Not long after lifting, I started hearing this clunking sound that seems to go away when I get up to highway speeds. It's kind of a combination of a clunking and grinding sound and my first thought was something...
