VERY loud clunk/jerk
Ok, I've got a 2000 Sierra on my hands. About 4 days ago, I noticed a popping sound when I pulled out of a parking spot, making a hard left. Ok, maybe its my u-joint I thought. After a day or so, and more pops to be heard, I noticed it was ONLY when I was accelerating while turning left from a complete stop. Hmmmm very strange to me. I jacked that baby up and checked to see if maybe there was anything loose or "out of place". Everything looked good to me, even the u-joints felt tight, and there was a good amount of play in the rearend.
After inspecting everything, I had to make a small road trip. Of course, the popping was there when turning left, and it seemed to be getting louder. Well, on my way back home, while accelerating from a red light, not only was there a popping sound, but also a very bad jerk. I've torn a rearend up in my Samurai before, so I know what it feels like. It felt kinda similar... So I try taking it easy on the way back, and to my amazement it popped and jerked taking off from a light, just going straight. Well, as I was turning right onto my street, out jumped that damn pop and jerk. Is my rearend trash? I don't feel anything while cruising or deccelerating, just during take off. I would greatly appreciate anyones help on this matter.
If it's not one thing, it's another! Damn the bad luck.
