Just like the title says. I had various wheels off the ground and spun the tires, sounds quiet but of course not under load.

Not sure what you're asking? Is the angle gear noisy, or do yo think AWD isn't functioning?

Picked up a non running 2000 R and was wondering if there was a way to check the angle gear. If not, I guess I'll find out when I get it going.

I'd worry about getting it running, before being concerned with angle gear noise.

I agree, but it's easier to change it when I do the engine swap, that's why I was asking if there's a way to test it.
