I am trying to narrow down this grinding sound my 1/2ton big bock truck is making. It is like a metal on metal sound, almost like brake pads that are worn out. It seems like it it is in the middle of the truck , that's why I am thinking the trans.
Here is some back ground: The th400 was a free bee from a diesel short bus. The th400 looked clean and rebuilt , the bus was rolled over so it was running when junked. It was a short tail shaft that had a bolt on yoke, I am running a slip yoke. I am getting a grinding sound at light throttle after the truck is driven a few miles and warmed up, If I shift in to neutral it goes away. If I put it in second the sound is still there. The trans shifts normal and is not slipping at all even under full throttle.
I noticed the rear yoke has some play if I push it side to side, not sure this is normal,
Any ideas?
