Hi all
well I finally got the 85 vanagon camper to make the mystery noise more then once in a while.

When i crank it right to left in the ass end it clanks like something is very loose or ready to come off. usually at speeds of 10 mph or greater. does not make
noise going in forward or reverse straight driving or accel or decel. just in the turn. Any hints on where to look

CVs are good and repacked
all new rear brake stuff
cotter pin is in and lugs are tight
cv bolts are at spec
??? thanks Jonce
