i bought my 90 a few months ago, one of the first things i did was replace the u-joints on the rear ds as they were badly worn out. now, i got new straps for the back one but they seem to be loose(not holding the joint very well). after a few weeks of driving, i get noise and some minor vibes back. so i check, and the tabs on the axle yoke that keeps the joint centered have flared out a bit, and the joint can slip back and forth in the straps(wich are bolted tight). ive been able to press the tabs back in place, but the problem just comes up again in a few weeks.
so what is my problem here? worn out axle yoke? out of balance ds? are those straps suppose to clamp the joint down or just hold it between the tabs?
