Broke down in Las Vegas

[mgriff67]

Last week I started on a cross country trip in my 94’ 80 series. We made it all the way out to Las Vegas before I began to face some issues. There is a pinging sound coming from the front of the vehicle that increases with driveline speed. It isn’t there on idle and revving makes no difference. I’ve greased the U joints and they seem fine.

Would anyone in the Las Vegas area possibly be able to lend a hand today?

What was it?

What was it?

Spider bearing in the U-joints. Took out the front drive shafts. Unfortunately, another issue arose and now it barely holds idle and won’t rev in gear or parked.

Just going to get another hotel and drop by a shop
