Re: np205 grinding noise????
Gator, the output shafts on the 2 WD & 4 WD 465 cases may be different causing this issue. It would seem to be logical. What are the chances you got 2 bad 465's and 2 bad 205's, right? Drive line angles could also be an issue.Check the "U" joints. Angle should be about 2 to 4 degtrees I think between the shaft and the pinion yoke or the trans output shaft. let us know, jim
