Hearing strange noises coming from rear of Bugsy that I can't identify. Occurs at certain speeds / RPM's.
My passenger Kate yesterday put her hand on Tranny tunnel
And moved it back to the spot where tunnel joins bulkhead and said vibration is coming from here. A spot directly over back of driveshaft u joint.
Started home on Saturday night and as I started to turn left I felt and heard a big "sproing" add those big cartoon sounds. Sounded like something had bound up and released.
Thinking driveshaft. Have a spare with very floppy u joints front and rear in all directions that j turn driveshaft. Need to do cleanup by feels like a problem that can be corrected.
Other thoughts tips on aligning and reinstalling driveshaft in a BE. Yes I know the masking tape trick already. And are my suspicions correct?
