Thanks for all the replies, the noise turned out to be due to a bad U-joint so I managed to find a used driveshaft and swaped it in.


Why did'nt you just put new U joints in. they are like $23



How much did you pay for the drive shaft ?

"why not put new ones in"



did they not change to the non replacable u-joints in 83. I know i cant just replace the ujoints in my 85 gsl. have to have them machined or throw a new driveshaft
