Well, my drivetrain/suspension problems are still with me. 200 miles ago I put in a new driveshaft seal in the rear diff and GL 5 oil, GL 5 Oil in the front diff and Mopar ATF +4 in the transmission. Everything was quite for 100 miles. Today, when turning, not just slow tight turns, I could feel the driveline binding. When backing up, I can feel it bind and popping. More so when the truck turns to the right.
In addition, the speedometer needle bounces around and rests at zero some too.

Any ideas? thanks..

hmmm, what kind of locker out back? That sounds like the prime suspect to me...

The standard posi-traction rear. Just had the cover off of it 200 miles ago and all was fine.

My guess is that you have a worn clutch pack on your locker. Fix it before expensive things happen. When the friction material is gone, the plain metal sufaces hold too long and let go with a bang. Eventually a spider gear will let go first. Do not ask me how I found this out. My wallet is still feeling the pain.

Just so it's been addressed, you did put the friction modifier in the rear-end when you changed oil . . . . . right?

If its a 4x4 and fronts not engaged id put my money on the LS, whether its wrong oil as was said or no friction juice.
