My father-in-laws truck makes a popping pinging noise one time when engaging in reverse. It does not make this sound when going back to forward . It doesn't make any weird noises driving down the road. The universal joints look fine the swing bearing is good. The sound sounds like it is coming from inside the rear-end specifically the yoke sticking out the front of the rear end. It almost seems like the yoke is wobbly? Surely it would be pouring out the front if that front bearing was that bad. I did post a youtube video. In the video one wheel is jacked up. The truck is in park. I am forcefully turning the tire back and forth left to right by hand. Its making the exact sound. BTW it has 320,000 miles on it. Engine runs great, transmission has been rebuilt twice. The engine noise in the video is a car driving by.
