U-Joint FUN
Over the holidays I had a chance to diagnose my wife's squeaky rear.
Initial inspection revealed nothing. Everything felt tight, so further disassembly was required to find the one dry cap causing all the ruckus. Thought I would share the fun with all my ZR-1 brothers.

ICK.
Lack of periodic maintenance on an old car will cause that.

Re: U-Joint FUN
Slick method for holding the big clamp, I will try that next time. I generally used a big bench vise but I like your arrangement.

Re: U-Joint FUN
Not to sure the joints even have a grease fitting, so no amount of maintenance would have stopped this.

Shrek, perhaps you might want to rephrase your description, lest your wife read it.... -Bob
