Hey everyone. I've been pulling my hair out over this issue my 98 rcsb 2wd has. When I turn over a bump (reversing as well) I get the famous gm clunking sound right from the axle on both sides. If I shake the box side to side I can get the noise every time. I've checked the u bolts and made sure everything is tight. I've jacked up the truck and only have very little play on the tire when pulling and pushing axle in and out which is normal. I don't think it's a bearing because I get no noise when driving. Question is the problem I have is it normal. Seems a lot of ppl say it is. Is it common for the c clips to wear down and cause more travel in the axle? Truck only has 160000kms.
Thanks in advance
