My two trucks a 56 PW and a 43 WC63 both have rebuilt drivetrains and trannies. Both trucks have the growlly sounds when in 3rd gear. I believe most of the trannies of this type have the gear noises in them and it's part of the driving experiences. The WC63 truck does have a lot more xcase noise and it is rebuilt with new gears and bearings as well. All the diffs are overhauled with new bearings and the backlash and mesh reset to stock specs so I'm not sure how much a worn xcase or diff will resonate down the driveline to the tranny area or be heard to come from the tranny area. Just a thought .....Terry
