The sound is coming from the middle of driveshaft. U-joints?

Not the same as my slip joint (carrier bearing) noise, but if you have a two piece drive shaft that's a good place to start. U-joint(s) maybe dry or there is something rubbing on the drive shaft.

Jeez, have you got a piece of wire wrapped around something? Maybe a loose heat shield?

No the shaft is free of anything hitting it

Yea I don’t have carrier bearing. Short bed. I’m guess I’m gonna drop the shaft and figure it out
