Hello Forum Members:

I am still trying to find out what is causing the loud noises on my '58 VW pickup.

I have a funny feeling that my problem might be swing axle issue or a bad wheel bearing.

When I am going under, say 40mph, I hear a DIT-DIT-DIT sound. But the sound does not appear to coming from engine compartment.

Does anyone know how to troubleshoot swing axle and check for loose bolts, etc.?

Do I need to take the rubber boots off both sides (near tranny and near wheel)?

Please help.

Thanks,

check the hub nut they can cause this type of thing very large nut and suposed to be very tight
