Subject:Pinion Shaft

Greetings all.

I have a question about the tranny on my syncro. Has anyone had a
failure or excessive wear of the pinion shaft. I'm getting a few clunks
from the rear when shifting. I am also experiencing a vibration
especially when decelerating or under load from about 2500 to 1500 RPM.
This vibration is present w/wo drive shaft, just more pronounced with it
in. The vibration also shows itself as a pulsing vibration, but not
matching the wheel revolutions. Any ideas would be appreaciated.
