Have you checked that the exhaust pipe has not loosened in some way? I assume that the noise has not coincided with the vibration, and that you never actually ran the engine with low oil.

As far as I can tell, the drivetrain is hooked up correctly and flex disks/differential mounts seems fine? I'm not at all sure about it being correlated with a shift into fourth.. it seems to begin right away; as soon as I go a half decent speed.. say.. 10 mph?
My first assumption was that the exhaust pipe loosened and I checked it. It has no play and appears to be mounted just fine. It sounds terrible until I rev it, at which point it sounds passable.
Speaking of transmissions ~ Supposing a transmission never had its fluid changed.. (or seldom has) would it be wise to change the fluid or to leave it in for gripping to prevent slipping?
