When I am in 4WD and turning sharply under load I hear a constant clicking noise. Are these the CV's? (no diff locks by the way).
What am I up for to replace them? Is it a big job? |

my brother had the same problem but i cant remember what it was, i think it had something to do with the bind in the tailshafts. either that or something to do with his springs. or my memory could be completely wrong and i could be so far from the answer. |

probably your steering stops grease them and see if it goes away |

i had a problem with my 60 series around corners or over bumps at low speads a big noise that sounded like the shackels inverting
i changed the bushes and still had it and gave it a good thrashing at menai and went away
after looking for new tracks out the back of galston and not finiding any that were decent the dam noise is back so i have to go and give it another thrashing to get rid of it.
talked to toyota and they reckon it is common in the 60s |

Flat ground or off road?
How worn are the shackle bushes? The spring may be rubbing on the shackle.
Are the U bolts tight?
Ur tyres aren't rubbing on the inner guard/shock tower?
Thats the easy options.
In 2wd 0r 4wd? If its in 4wd it will more than likely be the cv's. |

Thanks for your help guys. It is my CV joints. They apparently usually last the life of a vehicle but being an ex coal mine vehicle, they've probably had a hard life.
I have quotes for $195 each reconditioned or $350 new. I think I will go the cheaper option since I'll only own it for a few more years. |
