Subject:'83 Air Cooled 'ASI Conversion' rear end clunk
From:Kip Jacob

Hi

As the Jacob Family Campster "Alivan" leaves its home base in
beautiful Sedro-Woolley and travels the highways and byways of the
Pacific Northwest on occasion a clunk - clunk noise is heard from the
rear end.

I have searched the archives and the consensus of the search is worn CV joints.

The noise comes and goes. When I grab a drive shaft; after stopping
the van of course, and push and pull it a couple of times towards the
wheel then transaxle the noise goes away and will not return for
hundreds of miles. Does this jive with worn CV joints? Thanks for any
insights and advice.

Regards

Kip Jacob
