Rumbling rear noise 1800 1964

Gene,

Your response to Phil S. made me think of another possible answer. When you replaced the center support bearing perhaps you did not get the rear drive shaft aligned with the front half. The yoke on the engine side of the center bearing should be in the same position as the yoke on the rear side of the center bearing. Because the rear half of the drive shaft is splined it is easy to install it off a spline or two. This causes the U-Joints to work against each other and can cause the noise you discribed.

Hope this helps,

Ron J
