rear end problem?
My son called me the other day and thinks the rearend on his 72 is going out. The best description I could get was that there is a clicking noise coming from the back. He couldn't remember if it was all the time or just when making turns.
Anyone have any words of wisdom on this? Thanks in advance.

If there is something rubbing you will see some nice shiny metal. If no rubbing/worn parts are found, change the posi fluid and don't forget the additive

Re: rear end problem? (aj1988)
Here's my suggestions:
Change the posi fluid.
If the problem presists - it's very likely the spider gears and the rear end would need to be rebuilt...
