    What is this 2 prong Plug above the oil filter?

    Hello! I have a 1976 Chevy K10 Scottsdale 350, automatic transmission. Can someone tell me what this 2 prong Plug is above the oil filter? It's the exact size one would plug into a wall outlet (though obviously not in this case lol)

    At this point I'm thinking I either need to have my front shaft rebalanced or buy a new shaft. I found a remanufactured shaft for $400 on eBay and new shafts are proving very hard to find. Question is, is it worth chasing issues with the stock driveshaft or should I just replace it?

    Well the noise was gone for a few weeks and then came back with a vengeance. I pulled the driveshaft off again and it seems like the ball joint in the centering yoke is sticking. It's making me think the angle is off after putting the 2 inch lift in and it's causing the centering yoke to wear...

    All u-joints and the centering yoke have been replaced and the noise is gone! When I got the old centering yoke off, the spring was broken into a few pieces and the part was pretty worn in general. Thank you all for your help!

    I took all the u-joints out but I didn't see a spring anywhere so that must have broken and fallen off or something. I'll look into ordering a new centering yoke

    Yeah I had all 4 up in the air but I didn't try it in Loc. Once I replace the u-joints in the front driveshaft I'll test it in Loc and see

    Thank you! I thought I was in Hi-Loc cause it felt like the end but I just had to pull super hard. The truck drives now and there are no weird sounds so it was definitely the front drive shaft. Is there a chance it could be the u-joints or do you think I need a whole new drive shaft?

    I removed the front driveshaft but now my truck won't move at all.. She'll roll in neutral but no driving forward or reverse. Any idea what that means? I was under the impression that removing the front shaft would just give me a rear wheel drive truck

    Okay thanks. I'll try that and see what happens

    Sorry, I'm referring to this yoke that joins the axle at the u-joint

    Yeah I've got the chrome tin covers. Currently no plans to change them out but that may change. The pinion only wiggles a little but only on the driver's side.
