I drive by a house every day that has about 5 of these in their drive way in different stages of condition. I think they still DD the one, which is something when living in the salt belt!! I always thought they were cool looking cars! GLWS

this sell? I PM'd you

bump for some interior pics and ones of the rust issues. thanks Grant

WHOA! none of mine where that bad! lol. . I'm thinking I had a bad/broken bearing or two. I could see most of the caps after I cut them out and didn't notice much (or any) wear

decided last minute to change all the u-joints just to make sure, and it worked! I can't believe how much noise the bad one made! and still couldn't tell you which one it was, I ended up having to cut the last two out because I could get them to press out. thanks again for all the help/suggestion the truck is driving like a newly lowered bouncy dream! lol on to suspension now!

sorry guys I couldn't hear you over the interior. . glws

well I replaced one u joint, a few friends stopped by the shop yesterday and said one other has play in it also. I'm ordering up another today so I would imagine I should know by friday if it fixes the problem.

k guys, I get the new u joint tomorrow, will put it in and keep you posted

thanks for the input guys, for got to mention its speed related too (meaning faster I got the faster the clicking gets) - my thoughts would be, leafs springs wouldn't be speed related - nope never pulled the drums off till now - looking over the u joints again, seems like no play, nothing broken argh

My 620 has started a clicking sound from what sounds like the rear of the truck. This clicking only happens when under load and only when going forward. if I feather the throttle starting off/or when sustaining speed/or lift off throttle it doesn't do it, and if I start in second and punch it, it sounds louder. what have I done to the truck recently: I put 3" lowering blocks in it, put a 1" spacer under carrier bearing. Also my wife was making fun of my truck the last time I drove it so I did a wee little brake stand, and after reading this thread http://community.ratsun.net/topic/20939-differential-is-stuck-any-ideas/page__p__294630__hl__%2B620+%2Bdiff__fromsearch__1?do=findComment&comment=294630 I thought maybe I blew my rear end, so I pulled it apart, nothing appeared to be damaged so I brought it to my father inlaw (bigger gear head) his diagnosis was that it wasn't the problem. other minor problems with truck; about 1mm play in rear universal (play seemed gone when I greased it, sound continued, so have new one on order), carrier bearing rubber has a small tear in it (on order). So any suggestions? am I missing something in the diff? Next I'm gonna look at the axle/wheel bearings, but I am lost!

I thought I should add to this, I figured out the problem. . WAY overfilled by PO. . its all good now thanks again for all the help!

is your's a reverse bleeder?

nice to see any other person in ontario! we should all do a meet sometime!! I'm away from my shop for the long weekend, if no one else posts up a pic I'll throw mine up on the hoist and post up a pic when I get back

I ordrered two front fenders from them, they told me the reason one was $50 and the other was $130 was because they only had two left of the left of the $130 one, and all those parts were not being re ordered. so when they are gone, they are gone

ah. . I was going by the pics, and they show one. sorry. could try something I have always wanted to do, get a set of hyabusa ITB's (kijiji T.O. had a set for $300ish) and fab them up, seen a few done that way on other forums. Doesn't seem terribly hard. If I don't swap engine this winter that maybe something I look into
