Subject:      Bad Trans axel. Thank you!!
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

Thank you everybody for responding to my problem. I pulled the propeller
shaft on my syncro and sure enough the grinding was gone. My mechanic was
wrong!But it happens. He has gladly offered to reinspect for further
diagnosis. That leads to the next question. VC(probably) or front axel
(pinoin etc.). How will he be able to figure out the exact cause without
"guessing the most likely". He already almost had me spending big $$$ on a
trans so I want to be educated and sure. Again you all have been a great
help both mechanically and now financially! For now the propeller shaft will
stay out. I have read in the archives this is ok.?.
