I have been having a problem in 5th gear. Around 2500rpms I hear a loud rattling noise coming from the transmission. After I go over 3000rpms it essentially goes away. One of my neighbors, a big ford guy, suggested that it sounds like the throw out bearing. Does this sound like it is the throw out, or is something possibly wrong with the transmission?
BTW, I have gone throw 2 transmissions, and the 3rd cluster gear shattered in my old one.

It makes some noise but it becomes noticeable in 5th gear, I am away at college atm so it is hard to recall everything. But I am positive it makes noise in other gears, but you have to listen very carefully otherwise you wont notice it.

A throwout bearing doesn't care what gear you are in. If there is a noise concerning a throwout bearing. With the engine running try the pedal up, a slight amount of pressure or to the floor. If the noise changes it's throwout bearing or clutch related.
This is my replacement cluster from TTC. It's a genuine Tremec brand part and the broken one looks very different in quality, finish and colour. New one on the right. Broken imitation on the left. http://mustangforums.com/forum/membe...3-img-0522.jpg

Trim, if you push in the peddle does it go away? OP you should check your u joints and everything else that has to do with and around the trans too and make sure nothing is loose.

yeah, I think so. It starts doing it again at WOT in 3rd and 4th gear.
