    Is there a break in period on u joints that it will creak like this? I just replaced the center u joint. Carrier bearing is also sqeeking but I can't tell if it's from beating on it replacing the u joint or if its from the 4" of lift in the back that's pulling the rubber of the carrier bearing out of the metal collar. Drive shaft spacer on the way. Anyone know anything about my problems?
