Have a rattle coming from down under gearbox somewhere in my 1982 hilux . It runs the 2L engine - 2.2L diesel. It only rattles when vehicle is in motion, can become quite loud at times. Any help, assistance or ideas would be much apprectiated .
Cheers

Anywhere between go and 80km. Full time rattle . Winds down, I think , slowly as the truck slows down to a stop.

are the weights still on the drive shaft, as it could be out of balance or dented, if you have been 4wding?
