Re: Restoring Rusty

Yeah, yeah, looks ok, but how does it drive? How does it shift? Did you get rid of the noise?

So did two test drives a couple hours apart. On the first test drive still had some noise similar like before the rebuild just not as bad, not as loud. So I figured maybe we need to give it time for the transmission sauce to slush around sum more, so I took it for a second test drive, and similar results. Better than before the rebuild but not quiet by any means. For those of you wondering, I am running SAE 80W-90 gear oil with no Snake Oil additives.

Sounds like this dude had the same problem 9 years ago... SAGINAW TRANNY "GEAR RATTLE"? on H.A.M.B. and those guys know their shizwa, but of course no solution has been posted
