Ok so I have a 1995 Chevrolet 1500 4*4 truck that is making a clicking noise towards the back of the truck. It only does it like first and second gear and then either I just can't hear it or it is doesn't make the clicking noise anymore, and I have also noticed that it only does it when the truck has been running for a while. Any idea s on what my problem could be?

sounds like you have a universal joint thats going on you. Block your tires and climb under the truck. Between lengths of your drive shaft is an X shaped thing. Thats the universal joint. There will be 1 close to the transmision and another near the rearend. Grab the shaft and push it up and down and side to side. There shouldn't be any play in the joint. If there is you'll need to replace it. If there tight and there is a grease fitting then grease them. If there isn't a fitting it muy be a dry joint and the little needle bearings are slowly grinding them selves away. Hope that helps.
