odd noise

sorry if this is a faq by new.

I have a 2003 4x4 supercab Ranger xlt. I have had it for about
1 1/2 years with no problems.

However, after my last oil change (and tire rotation) I now hear this
whoop whoop sound that gets faster with accelleration. I first
thought it was from the tires being rotated and uneven treadwear.
Now I am not so sure.

Is this the driveshaft problem that is often discussed? How
do you tell if you have the aluminum or steel driveshaft?

thanks

It doesn't cost much to have your tires rebalanced. Tread wear will change the balance some.
Take a magnet to the driveshaft. It won't stick to aluminum.
