Well I got down and dirty and checked into this problem. My rear pinion angle is 2 degrees down from the driveshaft. CHECK. All bearings associated with the driveshaft have zero play. CHECK. CV assembly is in good working order. CHECK. U-bolts nice and tight. CHECK. U-joint at the axle yoke has one dried up seized cap that will not turn. ISSUE FOUND.


BUT....(theme to Jaws playing)...i ended up snapping a yoke bolt up on the dana 30. Son of a ..... I'm gonna have to drill and ez-out that darn little bolt. I already ordered a new strap and bolt kit from 4wd.

Jeeps....
