<VV> Strange sound in rear

[James P. Rice]

Jim: Check the u-joints for rotational play.  Real easy to do with wheels
off ground. 

May be a needle bearing failure in progress within one of the u-joints.

Hi all,

 My 65 corsa has begun making a low freq noise when making a sharp turn
either right or left from somewhere in the drive train at low speed. Like
when you would turn sharp in a parking lot. It sounds a bit like ooh ooh
ooh. Only when turning. Checked wheel bearings and transaxle temps and no
hot spots after 20 miles on the freeway. Does not make the sound when
running on jack stands. Makes the noise hot or cold. Could it be the posi
clutch pack?

Thanks,
