What timing, I recently replaced the carrier bearing assy and noticed the stiff detant area in the U-joint and wondered how long that would last...and how to R&R the bugger. Now I'll just leave it and forget my next job also...R&R the trans mount...looks like hell but it's hangin in.
Also get a nice sounding howl from the rear grears and want to change the gear oil (267K is probably about time) but I'm just praying it's as easy as doing it on a Chevy...are there any tricks or tips in getting level right or is it just up to the level of the fill-hole? I've not even looked at it ( rear housing ) yet, so feel guilty about asking but everything I fix on this old girl teaches me how great the differences are between GM and MB and now that I don't have to worry about the mount my weekend is about shot without something to fix.
Thanks, take care and enjoy!!
