5.7 Hemi
Hello Everybody!
I drive a 2016 1500 2WD 5.7 Hemi. I am hearing a noise from my under carriage that increases as I speed up. I thought it was the rear wheel bearings, so I replaced those. The noise didn't stop. I jacked the rear of the truck up and put the truck in neutral and rotated the driveshaft by hand. I am hearing a noise from the transmission (heard in video). Is that a normal sound?

Are you sure it’s not your u-joints ? Very common for them to make noise when going bad .
