Wierd drivetrain noise, road speed related..

Comes from the shifter area, gets louder and i go faster(mph) not does matter if the clutch is in or out, in or out of gear, or rpms... Jacked up car and spun all tires, check it out, didn't find anything..

My t2 conversion finally runs

Can't wait to get my boost leak solved

I have an s4 t2 drivetrain, complete swappage... I don't know about the u joints, I was thinking maybe that shield on the driveshaft that goes over the output shaft on the tranny...

Got it

It was the sleeve on the U-joint that slips over the tail shaft on the tranny.. It was crushed down a little. I had to "drive the car" on jackstands...
