A few months back our 1988 Dodge B250 decided to present us with a new challenge. She started making a loud clunk and would jerk from take off and upon slowing down. Best assessment was the rear differential / axle area. So, we decided to explore this completely uncharted territory. Within the last 12 years of owning her the only thing we had done thus far was change the rear differential fluid. This has been quite an interesting adventure. The following two links are for .pdf documents with photos and descriptions of what we've done so far - for those that are interested.
