Rear end "clunk"
Fellow board members.... We have collectively written a small novel on the subject of a distinctive "clunk" in the butt of our beloved P-cars. While there are many possible causes for this problem, I have finally found my "gremlin" after about 4 months. I took the car to Stuttgart house in NC, they went through the entire rear of the car. The noise finally was diagnosed as loose inner stub axles. Unfortunately, it had somewhat galled the splines, and I will ahve to think about re-building the diff during a future trans re-build.
If you have a clunk, and it is not the CV's, sway bar mounts, or swing arm bushings. I suggest you check the inner stub axles ASAP.
I hope my pain saves a few others... Geez the way I sacrifice myself for you guys....
