Consumer Description

THE TRUCK WAS MAKING A CLUCK DURING LEFT TURNS FROM THE DRIVERS FRONT TIRE, I TOOK IT TO SEARS FOR INSPECTION AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS BUT DID SAY THAT THE BALL JOINTS (ALL FOUR) WERE GOING BAD AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT SOON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE PURCHASED FOR ANOTHER INSPECTION AND THEY SAID THE SOUND WAS DUE TO THE BALL JOINTS (COST TO REPLACE=$700). I HAD THE BALL JOINTS REPLACED...THE TRUCK STILL MAKES THE SOUND AND IN ADDITION, NOW MAKES THE CLUCK WHEN TURNING RIGHT IN ADDITION TO LEFT. AT THE SAME TIME, I HAD THE MECHANICS INSPECT THE DRIVE TRAIN DUE TO A GRINDING SOUND THAT IS GETTING WORSE AND CHANGES WITH SPEED. THEY DETERMINED THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL IS BAD AND WILL NEED TO BE REBUILT/REPLACED IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE (AT A COST OF ABOUT $1000).*AK
