    Cat 3116 lost oil and started knocking

    If your driveshafts don’t pass the “hinge test” which is basically zero discernible movement up and down at the spline, your best option is to bring them to a drivetrain specialist and have them replace worn components.

    Cat 3116 lost oil and started knocking

    Many stories on here of failed LMTV engines due to broken oil lines, which are caused by the way by vibration caused by driveshaft spline wear. If you are not a DIYer it’s a matter of doing the math. Very likely the crank is scored up already, which makes an inframe not an option.
