my next question is, did you guys buy the cat back w/a few feet of pipe in font and back, or just the actual cat back. The price for the cat back alone is about 65 w/ pipe about 125. Just called another shop, they'll charge me 75 to put it in and another 125 for a flow master w/ a tip. Right now i'm waiting for the new transfer case to come in, old girl's on life support.

 

got the new transfer case in yesterday, the rebuild looks real good. I'm replacing the front and rear u joints when i get the truck back I also got all synthetic ATF for the TC, hope to make it last longer than the last.

 

hey guys , ive got an 05 ram 1500 that clunks SOMETIMES when going from reverse to forward...after i start accelerating...and EVERY TIME after backing down the boat ramp , and starting off with boat in towe....its not the tranny clunking from being in a bind , it happens after the tires turn 2 or 3 rounds...i get no whine / roar / vibration on the highway , niether when accelerating or letting off the gas....no..chirping..like a u-joint would do { or has done in the past } ..i can however move the rear u-joint back and forth between the cups..just a little...should i be able to do that ?? my clunk is not in 4 wd , but 2 wd....im hoping its just u-joints probably not , with my luck.....going to try to get my mechanic to come get truck while i fish tomorow { im a charter guide } and replace u-joints...problem is , ive got 5 trips in the next 4 days , and hope it dont explode on the ramp before i can get it fixed......any advice would be appreciated....

 

Sounds like the U-Joints or the Ring and Pinion.
