Actually I've been meaning to mention...
I had the summer tires put back on my 190D on Friday, had to buy 2 new ones to
replace 2 that were worn when I had bad links in the rear end.
So they put the two good old ones on the rear first while I went inside to get
the 2 replacements. The kid and I talked while he swapped those on "$8/hr? Geez"
When he went to hit it with the torque wrench the car started to roll away
because he'd left it on the jacks, probably since I'd distracted him...
Got it off the jacks, hit the fronts with the TW and I was off.
Had to go out to western MA on Saturday, did about 100 miles. On the way home I
started to notice a vibration I didn't like but figured I was just tired.
Vibration was back Sunday and got BAD including thunking on deceleration BAD. I
got scared until it occured to me the kid hadn't used the TW on the rear
wheels. You don't suppose?
Yup, the rears weren't even finger tight. Pulled out my lug wrench and
tightened, vibration GONE, thunking GONE. Hit 'em with my TW when I got home,
its a beam type that only goes to 75 ft/lb. I keep forgetting to go back and
get them retorqued, I should have yesterday but it was pouring...
Anyway, stupid little thing, but worth checking.

Hi folks,
I called Rusty yesterday and got a TERRIFIC price on the Flex discs for
this car's drive train. I intended to order them both (Front and
Rear) tomorrow, when I get some money in.
However an inspection today shows those discs to be good.
Any ideas where to look if I am getting a loud clunking noise (like the
older Ford truck U Joints sounded) some with acceleration and a lot
with deceleration?
Rear End? Rear Differential? Rear Differential fluid level?
