I have a 400,I think it is a 1956,it is low on hours and in great shape,other then it has a powerful scream coming from the Transmission.My Dad when he was alive had a Tech look at it and didnt tear down,because from looking in from the top eveything looked good and tight.But let me tell you if you "road" this thing,you need a good stiff Brandy after you get off of it,cause the noise is terrible!Do you feel this might be the range shaft bearings?

 Worn gears? in reply to Ande, 01-11-2007 17:07:28  
Straight cut gears (which the 400 has) become noisy with use and wear. A noisy shock wave occurs when one tooth releases before the next one makes contact. The only good cure is new gears and perhaps bearings for the high range.

Are you fairly certain the noise is in the transmission rather than farther back in the differential?

I know what you mean,
My '56 400 is noisy in high range.
I don't go on the road very much, but when I do..... ...I need ear plugs.
