clunk diagnostics



I trying to determine the source of my clunk.
On the trailing arms, which bolt are more likely to loosen-- front end of
the arm or rear?
I read that they need to be torqued with weight on the wheels, but it
doesn't look easy to do that. Is that a true statement?

when I slide underneath I can simulate a lighter clunk by sliding the axle
on either side. That combined with the fact that the clunk alternates with
different corners and does not repeat with like corners makes me think that
I've still got the "rear axle clunk syndrome."

According to past messages and information gleaned from a bad copy of a DW,
I need to lube the outboard drive shaft on the rear axle. The pictures I had
to go off of were not that high of quality. Those early DOA DW issues were
not high grade; add to it that this looks like a copy of a copy, and I'm a
little lost back there... and I'm not getting this fixed fast. Does anyone
have good looking pictures of where exactly I should be "lubricating the
inside of the outboard drive shaft"?

I read this somewhere:
"most experts agree that the end of the world will come by accident, most
likely. That's where we come in; we're Computer Experts, we make accidents."
