I just changed all the u joints in my 74 bronco drive shaft along with a new yoke assembly. Ran fine for about 10 miles but now I seem to have ringing sound (like a bell) going from the rear joint when accelerating. Any ideas?

First thing I would do is put it in neutral, get under it and check for slack or if you lost a cap on one of the u joints. All the u joints are aligned?

Did you check if your dust shield is loose on the pinion yoke? I know mine was loose and it made a terrible ringing/rattling noise.
