Noise from Transmission

[Chevracer87]

Ok guys here's my problem. I getting a weird clicking noise when letting off the throttle in 5th gear. It definitely sounds like its coming from the trans. It does not happen in any other gear and if I push in the clutch the noise goes away. I have checked the jack shaft for being loose and so far have not found anything obviously wrong or loose. Could this possibly be a bad synchronizer? I have not had the top cover off the trans yet to check for wear. I have searched to see if others have had similar problems but haven't come up with anything.

Thanks

Yup, I think I read in other threads that, that noise is probably the syncro.

Why would it click? I have had a clicking in a manual transmission in a car when I had a cracked transmission case causing some kind of misalignment and gears to touch somewhere inside. I wonder if some pin or spring came loose inside. I would drain fluid and check its condition as well as removing the cover from the top and inspecting.

It may just be that extra tailgate bouncing around in the bed of yours
