clunk

I'm guessing this is a late-model 1500.... You need High Pressure grease, just put it inside the yoke. It's an easy,

20min job. 10 if you have ratcheting box-end wrenches and a lift (including lift time).

No need to lift a stock height truck. Just slide under and have at it!

Doc

True, but easier, faster, less muddy if you have a lift.

~KJ~

It is quite easy and MUCH cheaper than replacing the yoke! I did this on my '99 Suburban last Spring and it has yet to make the clunk again. Just used some high temp grease from the ol' grease gun inside the splines. Quick, cheap and easy!

sorry yes 98 tahoe

Would this apply to my 92 K1500. I got a clunk thats driving me nuts.

Ahhh, I have a garage, no more mud for me. I was a mud-wrencher for YEARS and man does it suck. She always seemed to blow up when it was bitter cold or raining. He he he he he he.

Doc

Yup. Yank the driveshaft, grease the splines, and no more noise.

Doc

Doensnt last long though

that's why I've got a bud that has a lift in his garage AND works for a quality independant auto parts store.

Damn I'm jealous! I waiting for the landscapers who own a 5-acre chunk of land behind my land to move out so I can use the barn as a super-garage of sorts. Two-level vehicle storage and a hydraulic lift are on the menu...................if they ever leave.

Doc

I use Mobil 1 grease and it lasts 8-12 months.

Doc

What the 39$ per tub from the dealer isnt good enough. LOL Thanks Doc Tony

How much do you put in there by the way ?? Do you lube all the splines all the way down or just a bunch around the top which should slide a buch in. Thanks again Tony

I just slop a "handful" in there and rub it around with my hand as far down as I can reach.

Doc

Funny, I wouldn't know that at all!

Are you a mechanic or a veterinarian? ;-) H

Neither, I'm an Epidemiologist. He he he he he.........
