After spending time today tuning up the W9, I got the engine running pretty sweet. When I backed her up out of the shop, and put her in 3rd gear the rear end started popping quite loudly. And I could feel it in my feet. It actually locked up the left axle briefly. If I travelled a few feet in any gear the popping went away, but as soon as I changed direction it came right back.
Visually it looked like the tire was jumping a bit, but the brake drum wasn't. Seems to me it has to be the rear axle. I guess I'll start by jacking up the wheel to check it unloaded. There is no doubt that the left axle is the problem.
Can the axle be pulled like an M---By undoing the outer bearing retainer and pulling the bull gear retaining bolt through the PTO. The cutaway I have doesn't show a inner bearing retainer.
How about separating the rear axle housing from the differential?
Can't wait to dive into this job over the weekend...
