I am glad your gonna do the mufflers I would get that out of the way to eliminate it from being the issue. I was also wandering if some how the PTO was not completely disengaged? That's the only other thing that came to mind since you did u-joints already. Have you pulled your rear diff cover recently and looked at gears and put new fluid in it?
