Transmission noise
Ok here we go.
I have just put a transmission into my ghia project and then changed to the axles to short ones.
When I reassembled everything and moved the car forwards and backwards it made a strange noise like a chocolate wheel (I was hoping to win) my
paranoia got the better of me so I pulled the whole thing apart and changed the diff for another that I had.
I reassembled, filled with oil, rolled it forward and backward and the same noise is there.
Is the transmission rooted or is it normal and will it all be good when I get it running. hopefull I know 
Ay experiences would be greatly appreciated

Ash is the handbrake cable clicking on the wheel studs? You might try pulling the brake partly on to see if the noise goes away or pulling the drums
to see if the cable interferes.

Handbrake cables are disconnected, the noise is coming from the transmission between the axles. When jacked up the wheels turn smoothly.

have the axle nuts been tightened? This will pull the axle out and I am assuming that you fitted the spacer on the end of the axle prior to the
nearing.Which seal spacer did you fit?

Is the transmission definitely in neutral and not part way,if you have all of the above in place and it still makes noise after changing the diff,I
have to suspect a partial gear engagement or a stuck synchro.

Definitely in neutral doesn't sound good does it?
Should I put a new transmission in before I pu the car back together, where can I get a reco tranny from?

No, you mean the Wheel of Fortune noise
That should cover it for all you non casino visitors and if you have never seen Wheel of Fortune, you have a problem under that rock for which you
live
