Question 97 5 speed manual transmission whine 4th & 5th gear

I have a question about my transmission. There is a quiet, high-pitched whine in 3rd,4th and 5th gears when my foot is on the gas. It's loudest in 4th and 5th. I was going to replace the fluid and see how it sounds then. What's the problem here?

Bumping because I'm having the same issue. Started at the beginning of the year and has slowly gotten worse. Ranger's the same year as OP's.

Has anyone put a 5 speed manual transmission and transfer case in a Ranger with a 5.0 V-8 ?
