front dive shaft has play
front dive shaft has play
Last week a brought my truck to the dealer for a leaky steering box and a leaky front diff.
They replaced the the steering box and the seal where the drive shaft enters the front diff.
Now a week later the truck makes a horrible noise while moving. The front frive shaft has lots of play in it. When I jack up DS front tire and spin the wheel it spins freely slow but if you turn it fast it stops. The front drive shaft looks like it moves forward and butts up against the front diff causing the resistance.
I have a 4 inch lift and I am worried that they will place blame on the lift.
I plan on taking it back to the shop monday morning.
