If the noise goes away over 1000 RPM, it's probably gear rattle.

They tend to be noisier in 4th because the countershaft is not under load, so it tends to rattle around a lot.

 

I was wondering about that! That's exactly what mine does. It's mostly quiet at all other times and only rattles in 4th under load and below 1000 rpm.

Glad to know I don't have a problem.

Thanks

Mine did the death rattle a while back,and the bottom two bearing were out. Got all the parts I needed from Standard trans cheap to.

 

Its been a year sence i changed the tranny fluid. replaced it with Moble-1 full sinthetic(no one have 15/40 so i went wit 10/30)

sounds and shifts better(over filled, 5Q). fill plug has a magnetic and there wasn't enuf fine powder on the magnetic too even cover it so......my thoughts are that getrags are noise and I'm going to go with every body els and if it don't get any louder or change tone......It just a getrag



Thanks to every one for there input!!!!
