Original question is the part numbers for all the bearings. I work in heavy industry and have direct connections to some major bearing suppliers. Might be able save some coin?
I have been trying to get rid of a noisy driveline. After rebuilding the engine and replacing trans with another the the noise is still there.
The trans I put in I took apart and re-sealed. I question is wheather that may have resulted in a 'gear alignment' issue if the trans wasnt shimmed correctly with gaskets? Kit only came with one set of gaskets.
I'll list the symptoms for clairity:
When first started from cold, everything is reletively quiet.
After warming up there is a growl of sorts. Not like a wheel bearing that has gone bad, the noise is inconsistent.
It is affected a little by the clutch engagement and through the shifter a bit.
Same sound traveling or not, in gear or not.
Take off Alt belt and noise remains.
Engine is rebuilt with all new bearings and rings, rods resized and bushed.
Only thing that might be suspect is the oil pump but I havent had any oil pressure issues.
I'm open to any suggections to help track this down.
I may have left out a few things.
Ask questions! I have an open mind.
