Re: Are all these early trucks noisy going down the road?
Could be rear end ,if noisy it could resonate right up the drive shaft . I've had a few different 3rd members of different ratios in mine with different noises at different times like accelerating , or off throttle . I finally found the ratio that works best for me that was fairly quite but had a slight lash when going between on and off the gas so I had a shop go over the rear end who adjusted the lash , and now the thing screams like a banshee when accelerating . I'm told the gears have to wear back in , but after 6,000 miles it still screams so I will replace it over the winter.
My truck is a one ton panel and I can hear every little noise from the back so a quieter rear end is a must . My trans. is a t5 which has been there through all the rear ends and is fairly quite .
