How much drive shaft rotation/slack should you have on these cars (manual car)?
Here is what I am looking at. The wheels are grounded/ebrake and the trans is in neutral. I can rotate my drive shaft about 3/4'' from clockwise to counterclockwise. I am thinking the ring and pinon lash is looser than it should be. I get a pretty good clunk when the car takes up the slack from accelerate to decelerate / less than perfect shifts.
The rotation/slack is coming from the diff. U joints are fine.
