So i took the trans out to fix 2ndgear. 2nd gear sync was cracked in half. I put all new syncros in, and both main shaft bearings. I also replaced the rear tailshaft bushing which was thought to maybe be the problem causing the vibration. It was still good. I put it all together and actually found a driveshaft about 1 1/4 shorter. Took it for a ride and no vibration! Must of been that driveshaft bottomed on the yoke!! Everything is good now,except ! I have a slight woodpecker sounding noise coming from the trans It shifts great and does everything perfect besides the noise. I ran straight atf,im thinking of putting gear oil in it to see if it quiets down It goes away if the push the clutch in.

I think I said that back in January ....Glad you squared away your issues with that 4 spd,....now if you want to keep it together, GET THAT ATF OUT OF THAT CASE!,...use a GL5 90 weight oil only, that ATF will only shorten the life of that 4spd,...real quick
