If I give the 93 rover some gas and then immediatly let up, there is some sort of clank in it...feels like a shaft or something. Any ideas as to what this may be?

 

The drivertrain ina Land Rover has a lot of components where backlash will develop over time. It is not unusual to hear a bit of clanking ifquickly taking power off and then back on again. But-- to be on the safe side, have the u-joints on both the front and rear driveshafts checked out for excessive slop, or lack of lubricant. Other possiblecauses are the front hub c.v. joints, gear backlash in the transfer case, or in one or both of the differentials.

You get the idea?

These are Trucks -- not SUV's --- and the Range Rover Classic is getting on in years now. Hence -- the groans and creaks.
