Unless tranny needs a load to lock up, the above points to the rear end?
Not really.... What happens if you put the transmission in 2nd or 3rd gear with no DS, engine running, clutch out?
Just trying to help.  Example: If 1st gear is the "tight" gear on the main shaft, then it would function properly. If you put the trans. in another gear, then it would act like it is in two gears at the same time and you would have the symptoms/problems you describe.
