Savannah Drive... or you can turn off by Orange Grove Traffic Lights, and before you make the corner by the special learning centre, just drive straight across, u cannot miss it big yellow gate, right hand side.

LoTech Machinery

Is the name of the machine shop, they are directly opposite the hockey center on the sothern side.

like i said earlier, it will work itself out in time for most vans. some dont ever. let N&M technicians measure the diff play (how much the diff turns to engage). i think the max is 1/8 of a turn. if it is more, the diff needs to be changed. if less, then try not to study the backlash

neckto · Postby **neckto** » June 8th, 2009, 2:12 pm

ok cause my cuz changed one alreadt and still having real probs

ray d saint · Postby **ray d saint** » June 10th, 2009, 4:00 pm

it can be how u drive to eh, yes i know it is a van/4x4 but dat doh mean u could 'rough it up' 24/7

Continious HARD pull off's and abrupt stoppin can contribute also.

Fellas I haven't read the entire thread .... but is the backlash only on the automatic? Or is it on the manual too?

biggy82 · Postby **biggy82** » June 14th, 2009, 2:54 pm

sweeks, only on the auto tranny models.

sweeks · Postby **sweeks** » June 15th, 2009, 7:40 am

And with the over sized rims too?

biggy82 · Postby **biggy82** » June 15th, 2009, 1:28 pm

nope, guys with stock rims get it as well

neckto · Postby **neckto** » June 22nd, 2009, 11:14 am

well this guy is not a "hard" driver
and he running stock rims
i heard the prob exists with manual too though u dont feel it as much

Aaron 2NR · Postby **Aaron 2NR** » June 22nd, 2009, 11:42 am

problem does exist in the manual..sometimes u at a light and just feel a jerk from the rear of the truck.....first couple times it happened i came outside to ensure someone didnt hit me

biggy82 · Postby **biggy82** » June 22nd, 2009, 12:52 pm

haven't heard any manual models having that problem. will see if i can get the firm to take down the rear diff and check it.
