You guys will never believe what it was noticed my pinion Seal was leaking again because I didn't put it in correctly, so I took the drive shaft off and the cap fell off the u joint and roller bearings went everywhere. So I replaced the u joint (Which needed a 60 ton press to get out somehow at a machine shop) turns out this terrible noise was that u joint all along. Didn't know they even made that noise

It's FIXED! though, that's the point.

U-joints can make some truly interesting noises....

I'm glad it's fixed... And that I'm not going nuts. As HeyYou said, u-joints can make some odd noises. Might want to change them all in the near future.

Yeah I'm glad it was just that, I thought my whole drive train was going to disintegrate. I ended up getting a new trans mount too, cause mine the rubbers cracked through in some places. Thanks for the help guys, as always, i appreciate it.

So the noise came back....I'm thinking it has something to do with the broken trans mount making the u joint go bad, that's the only theory I have. I don't know what else makes them go bad that quick, I mean the u joint feels fine though. I hope the trans mount fixes it, don't feel like doing the u joint again
