Tyson,
>From my experience, in a 1500, it is most likely the pumpkin. Or it could be
U-Joints. Fire off the wav and I'll give a better suggestion.

<mts3@ra.msstate.edu> made the profound revelation:
> I'm trying to diagnose a noise in my Midget 1500 gearbox. Atleast I
> think it's in the gearbox. When driving, I get a vibration at around
> 38mph that sounds really deep. The sound occurs in either 3rd or 4th
> gear (I haven't tried second but that would be revving it really high).
> I could feel the vibration caused by the noise when it was occurring.
>
> I put the rear on jackstands and ran through the gears and it still did
> it....same noise/vibration at same speed.
>
> So I disconnected the driveshaft and I'm not sure if I hear/feel it
> anymore. But I was certain I could feel it right at the tunnel beside
> my right leg.
>
> Could the driveshaft be my problem? The driveshaft/gearbox union was
> pretty rusty.

> I have wav files (~250K each) if anyone wants to take a listen to try to
