Good news is I got my tranny in the truck today. I tested it as soon as
it was in place, without hooking up the propshafts or anything.
Bad news is that it's making a weird noise. Not a REALLY bad noise, but
a definite whining in everything (including neutral) except 4th gear.
What's been done to it since it was last in the truck: new mainshaft,
new primary pinion bearing, new primary pinion/mainshaft bearing, new
front layshaft bearing, new rear layshaft bearing and race, new 2/3 gear
bush.
Seems to me that it's whining when there's load on the layshaft, but
isn't the load on the layshaft in N and 4 about the same?
So, two questions:
1) What's wrong? Just an issue of gear run-out or something more
serious? I've had layshaft bearings go and this doesn't sound like that.
. .
2) Should I button everything up and drive it?
