todays wheelin, help please

cruiser · 12-02-2006, 01:27 AM

got to the top and found a screwdriver peirced through my tyre, missing the tube.

on the way home using first and reverse gear the truck was shaking badly, thought maybe had a flat got out, all fine, all nuts were tight.
got home found the diff was leaking.
could this cause the shuddering??

thanks for your help

HitokiriXJ · 12-02-2006, 01:43 AM

Pinion seal would be my guess for the leaking. Have you checked the driveshaft for play? And time I had shuddering whas right before the joints failed on my shafts. Other than that I

Wow what luck on that screwdriver not goin threw the tire.

Edit: What are the condtions of your motor and transmission mounts?

nblehm · 12-02-2006, 02:21 AM

I bet its a bad u-joint...since the pinion seal is leaking now and all

xjwest · 12-02-2006, 03:07 AM

Krazy · 12-02-2006, 04:21 AM

Seal didn't cause this, it's just leaking as a result. It's either a UJoint, or a pinion bearing that went out back there.

You put tubes in your tires?

I think he meant the handle on the screw driver is gone? Never heard that called a tube? But thats what I figured he meant?

Jeepin Jason · 12-02-2006, 02:33 PM

I think he mean the screwdriver just went through the outside of the carcass of the tire, it didn't actually penetrate all the way through, ie: pull it out and it doesn't start leaking.

Reminds me of the other day at work..had a customer come in for a flat repair when we pulled the tire off the rim we found a crescent wrench INSIDE of the tire.

firebrand · 12-03-2006, 07:18 AM

ThaUt's a pretty bad pinion seal leak. I wouldn't drive it until I was certain the pinion bearing was not the culprit. If it is, the pinion will beat itself into the ring gear, not good.
