So I got it on blocks and had a good look around.
The front shaft is super tight. No slop when shifting into D or R, and not able to twist it manually with the truck off.
The rear shaft guibo and center support bearing are completely shot. I'm sure the constant velocity joint is bad too. So the entire rear drive shaft is coming out tomorrow, front as well to inspect splines.
Did the engine mount test, no abnormal lifting or twisting of the engine. So those must have been done at some point.
More news tomorrow after my PB blaster goes to work tonight.
Thanks for all of the help.
