     I checked the drive axle angle with a small bullet level this afternoon. The length of the level is nine inches, in that length, the drive axle drops one inch. This may explain the noise I heard when leaving the Hamilton work rally which as I recall now, sounded like it may have been CV joint bind. I had no trouble on the way home and have not driven the coach since, as I have been working on the interior and just today, replaced two rear wheel brake cylinders.
I am concerned about undue CV joint wear. Level drive axles sound, on the face of it, to be reasonable and logical as is the reasoning provided here on the Forum, however I am sure the information you used to provide the measuring "sticks" that we used was good as well. How do you suggest I proceed?
