just recently i noticed i have a clunk when you shift between drive and reverse. and on occasion the clunk is there but not as loud when you take off...any ideas?

also a noise ive had for a while but didnt have a major problem with but since im here...when i stop hard theres another clunk but you can feel it in the steering wheel...

thanks for the help

 

Could be u-joints or just the ring and pinion hitting each other when force is applied in the opposite direction. Mine does it to, most trucks do.

 

bad motor mounts

 

my u-joints seem solid when i turn the drive shaft on flat ground in neutral...so i dont think thats my worry. should i worry about getting the ring and pinion checked out? or is it not a serious problem. cuz i dont really want my rear end to go because i HATE swaping them out...plus out here in CT they are impossible to find. my buddy just recently blew his. $1000 for a new one in RI. and i dont have that kinda cash to toss on a new rear

 

Bad motor mounts huh? I kinda disagree with that

You could get it checked out, but if anything they'll probably say to replce it, especially if you take it to a dealer

 

nah its nothing serious.. my truck does it too.. if your rear was going bad you would know driving down the road or when accelerating and putting strain on it.. its normal
