I have been getting a pretty low clunking noise when docking at full turn. I had a shift cable bellows go and tore things down and inspected the gimble and u-joint thinking that might be my clunking noise. Both look great.
I very closely inspected everything and found that the u-joint had a few worn spots on it. I thought it must be hitting the housing but after further inspection, realized that when fully turned, the two u-joints are coming in contact with eachother.
What do I do to correct this? What stops the drive from turning at the end of its range? I'm thinking there must be some bump stop type mechanism somewhere that keeps it from going too far?
Should I grind down the spots where it is coming in contact?
Thanks,
Tom
