alright guys so before i address my problem a little info, about 3 months ago i launched hard from a dead stop and somehow bent the u bolts holding the rear end shifting whole rear end damaging the pinion bearings and carrier bearing, i got the truck to the shop asap and had the pinion bearings and seal changed, also had everything checked out and the carrier bearing was also changed, at the same time i changed the u joints just to be sure
about 3 weeks ago i noticed gear oil around the front of the diff and right rear tire and took it back and they showed me the u joints were bad so they advised me to change them before replacing the seals so i changed them last week and the truck drives alot smoother there's no clunk when shifting anymore but now i have a problem when launching hard from a dead stop
im getting a sort of binding/ clunking on hard acceleration from a dead stop and the rear end feels a bit loose, i opened up the diff today to inspect it and everything seems fine and the gears seem to be wearing well, the shocks were loose and i tightened them but no change, u bolts are tight also
im ready to get traction bars but im not sure if this will fix my problem, this had not happened before so im not sure what it could be, i have been keeping the diff fluid full, i am changing the axle seals and bearings this weekend and taking the truck to the shop to get the pinion seal changed
should i just go ahead and get the traction bars or change something else first? my trucks a 07 crew cab with 6 inch lift true trac and 4.10 gears, sorry about the long post just trying to give as much info as possible
