Drive Axle Housing Problems
anyone,other than me,have any problems with their drive axle housings having wear? i just had my right axle & housing replaced less than 2 months ago and now i hear the other side doing that 'clunk'.
BTW-anyone have any used ones for sale or wanna 'give' away? maybe i need to upgrade.just wouldn't know where to start looking....

I've never had any problem with mine... Are you buying new parts or used? If you buy used it could be stuff that was beat on then sold. If you are replacing something, get new. Keep at it, it's a great car.
Also, do the work yourself... I just bought a blazer (winter vehicle). It needed an alignment I thought. I took it somewhere to get an alignment and they said I needed the Idler arm changed. They wanted like $350 just to do it. Right after I found that out, I went to autozone. Got the part for $23.00 and changed it out in like 30 mins...
Long story short, you will get raped on labor.
If all that cost $5k, and you did it yourself, then disreguard what I said above this.
