When I put my jeep into reverse from park it's kinda like a CLUNK and then from reverse to drive it clunks again it jus doesn't Seem smooth to me like it's not lubricated or something I'm a noob so if someone could tell me way they think it is n wat I can do to fix that wuld b great thanks...

 

i have the same problem it started to happen after my rear driveshaft fell out it may need to be lubed up im still trying to figure it out

 

I haven't had anything bad happen to it that's y I'm confused y it does so I u figure it out pls let me kno

 

Jack up the jeep and turn the wheels by hand and I think you will find that you need ujoints!

 

My jeep is all stock I haven't done any mods to yet so it kinda clunks n it sounds like it creaking so u think it's u joints?

 

Mine was the rear u-joints. Not hard to replace. Changed both in about 1hr.

 

I assume it's a grand cherokee since i didn't see any info in your profile!! If so check your upper control arm bushings.

 

Ya it's a 99 grand n I'm pretty new to this so what is that where is that n wat am I looking for. N jus reiterate the noise is like a clunk/creaking n only happens when I'm shifting from park to reverse n a little when I shift from reverse to drive. There is no noise after that, it's during the shift n while I release the brake to start reversing

Ok so I jus got my rear axle seal fixed and the rear caliper replaced cuz it seized up. I had the differential drained n filled up. BUT I still have this clunk when I release the brake from shifting into reverse. Ok so I push down the brake pedal I shift into reverse than I release the brake to start moving n theres a creaking noise n a bit of a clunk n it's coming from the rear. Is it rear u joints or rear driveshaft anyone plz help.

 

Any ideas?

 

it might be your pinion yoke might need to be takin off shimmed and re put on and tightened cuz thats what mine was so when i would release break the yoke would hit the gears together causing the clunk its not super bad just get it looked at whenever you can

 

my 97 grand is doing the same thing and now feelis like i am down on power as well to take of i have to give it gas till about 2000 rpms

 

Sounds to me like its the U Joints. I would change both its easy and cheap. If it was the pinion it would be whinning while driving. I had the same problem on my 94 ZJ
