Welcome!

Did you mark the drive shaft to make sure you installed it exactly the same way it was taken off? If its rotated a bit then that could cause a vibration.

Skidmark

Yep marked the yokes and reassembled correctly,I haven't
changed the shifter ball bevel washer yet I feel some vibs
coming from shifter the sound is like you would hear if the shifter boots were off, if you know what i mean, Thanks for you help

Skidmark

It's got me baffled...shifter washer could be worn but I doubt it

just a 22re

take a pry bar to the exhaust were it bolts to the bell they dont look bad even when you hang from them but if you pry it might show thats its broke been there done this lol and welcome man!!!

did you loose oil when d/s got pulled? also how was old pilot bearing did it sieze onto input shaft. Did input shaft look worn down.

Mine used to do that too. If I would hold the shifter, and push just a tad forward on it in 5th, the sound went away.

It went away all together when I installed the Marlin Crawler Heavy Duty Shifter Seat & Socket.

It's one of the more popular upgrades/mods folks do on this site. Just buy 'em now. Because we talk EVERYBODY into getting them eventually. And you'll see why when you put 'em in there. Makes all kinds of shifter troubles disappear, and makes new transmissions even better because they'll last 100x longer than the stock parts. Cheap and easy to install too!

Only lost a small amount of gear lube used a tailshaft plug,
old pilot was still good a little loose after 186,000
mainshaft pilot was not worn fit new brg snug, I replace the shift bushing at
105,000 cause she jumped out of gear, I did not pay it much attention
this time as it shifted well, as I said it could be my problem, I'll snach the
boot off again and change it, oh yeah the bell bracket is ok, is 5th gear
direct on this trans, I have no breakdown, surly it's not the mainshaft
brg.Throwout pressure would tell me if it's bad. Skid

Sorry guys I forgot to say Thanks for you input,
a lot of smart people on this site, I will figure this out,
probaly with some of your help. Skid

well..I replaced the shifter seat with a factory yota one, there not to far away and it helped a little, gonna jerk the muffler assy off and see
if it is loose inside..I'm a purchasing agent for a 4 store NAPA group and I
need a new exh. assy anyway. I still bummed about the noise although
it's not that bad, I'll never sell this truck it's to dependable for something
I paid 6700 for in 92.
