Background info:
I bought my K5 in non running condition. It had a straight 6/3 speed manual and NP205. I kept the 205 and swapped in a 454/Sm465. Both the 3 speed and 4 speed were 10 spline units. I have the right adapter for the 4 speed/205 but if I remember correctly the sleeve between the 2 came from the 3 speed/205.
The problem:
It drives fine but if I hit the gas or let off suddenly I get a nasty clunking noise that sounds like somewhere in the t-case area. It's not u-joints cause they are all new. I checked the t-case mount bushing and it is intact. Nothing is visibly moving while driving, I had the shift hump off to see if I could tell what it was.
If the drive sleeve was too long or too short maybe could it cause this noise? Maybe a cracked sleeve or some other t-case problem??
