Thanks for the suggestions. I'm about to go out and check things out. I doubt that it's the center carrier bearing, I replaced that during the rebuild, as well as all of the u-joints. I'll report my findings when I'm done.
If it's the pinion bearing how difficult is that to change out?

I am currently digging back in to a 1953 3800 (one ton) with a nine foot bed. I've owned it since 1979, and drove it until 1982 (or so). My wife got me involved in restoring it back in 2002, got the body removed and the frame redone, then things came up. Now I am retired and starting again. If anyone is interested I have photos on Imagur (
