I know in my car while in 5th gear it makes weird noses under load, but if you are just barely touching the throttle it is kinda quiet.

Probably bearings. The donor trans in my car now sounds terrible in every gear. Going down the road it sounds like an eaton lol

Welp...from what I've read...the stock shifter doesn't have shift stops. Which of course leads to broken forks when shifting like a gorilla.

I had a t-45 in my old 4 bangger ranger and my 3-4 shift fork died at 80k miles.
