By the way I have a 98 D1 with a transfer case the makes a clunk sound when accelerating.   Jason T.

Are you sure its the t-case and not a u-joint?   Sean Thomas (Sean6079) New Member Username: Sean6079 Post Number: 15 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Friday, May 16, 2003 - 04:47 pm:    I took it to the dealer 1 week ago and they told me it was the transfer case. But it sounds just like a u-joint. When I accelerate from start I can feel the freeplay. Also if this helps, when I'm turning and hit a bump I get the sound again.   Jason T.

A LOOSE joint is never a good thing...
