Trans sqweeks and squeels in 5th

[shannondeese]

Today I went and drove through a bunch of snow trying to get to my buddies cabin staying in1st, 2nd and 3rd all day. I used the winch a few times. About half wayback down the mountain the trans started to sound a bit off in 3rd. So when I got off the mountain I checked the oil level it was a bit low and dark. I had no way to add more but it wasn't very far below the fill hole so I drove it home. On the way there I noticed the squeels once I got home I changedthe oil. Now the trans squeeks and squeels in 3rd and 5th. 1st is normal, 2nd squeeks when first engaged then is fine. 3rd sounds like a cat in a room full of rocking chairs. 4th is normal. 5th squeeks and squeels too. Any thoughts. Or do I need to rebuild the trans. I hope not, right now this truck is my daily driver while I am fixing my other trucks. I used NAPA 90wt that is yellow metal compatible. Thanks

I am going to be pulling the trans in the next couple of days and taking it apart. I have the TM. Who do ya'll recomend to get a rebuild kit for it from? I need this old girl to be reliable again. Thanks.

Are you convinced the noise is inside the transmission? I wonder if you simply have a bad throwout bearing ,and/or need your clutch linkage adjusted properly. Just a thought.

Could your pto still be engaged?

The fact that in 4th (input and main shafts directly connected at same speed) it doesn't make that noise makes me think about the 14roller MS support bearing.....
