it might get better.
(snipped)
if in the 5sp, id say, the noise is gear noise, not bearings... and 5th tops your list.
it might be just ignored. that... let it make noise, or try synthetic oil, knowing full well it might make the sychro's, balky.
the stethoscope at transfer, case would rule out front it if that case.
Prime suspects, bearing 2 or 3

very happy for you , a running car !!!
only moving, noise..
the chain in the transfer is stalled in 2H or Neutral.
hope its outside your 5sp.. do.
Hi, thanks. Is running nice. But the noise remains. Having friend help localize today. I sure do hope is outside the 5 speed.
It sounds awfully similar to this, but only on acceleration, load, or kind of static-load…not decelerating.

My transfer case had full oil, but color wise was from the death star. Still might be 5th gear, just being too worn. The sound becomes noticeable in 3rd, when lugging or low speed, then 4th at speed, and 5th is the loudest. Given that it stops when the clutch is in (even when in motion), does that rule out front and rear differentials?
Kind of bummed. Figured I should do both cases at the same time but lacked the money. Worst fear is they shipped me not one but two bum bearings and the other one got by me during assembly of the 5 speed. If it's gear noise, I will live with it as it has always had some kind of gear whine at speed just not as loud, but need to rule out a bearing for peace of mind. Then again, if the bearing goes, I'll know where the problem was.
Can you pull a transfer case without pulling out the whole transmission assembly again?
