They could not properly do the alignment with out relpacing the ball joints. What about the transfer case fluid?

ya i know that now. i paid all that money for an alignment and now my alignment is still off, i asked the idiot at car x if it will make a difference without getting my ball joints done and he said no. there is transmission fluid now in the transfer case. can a bad axle make that noise.
thanks for the help

check the torsion bar mounts, though I would think they would have? and they usually make a clunk when body flexs/turning? midway under truck, the rear/end of each bar fits into a crossmember which mounts to frame using these torsion bar mounts(they're like a motor mount-a thick rubber adhered to the steel. The rubber comes unattached, to check, you must simply pry up or lift up w/hydrolic jack and look at mount. They cost like 35.00ea.
