so two issues, if you recLL ON MY TRUCK..
ISSUE 1.. shudder at take off under moderate acceleration, especially noticeable with trailer behind it or on uphill starts where greater torque is needed.
issue 2. rear end whine..
so I think I have definitely got issue 1 figured out. All along I felt, (after research) that the carrier bearing angle needs shimmed. I posted a TSB on here form long ago and it described exactly the issue. Well this morning I had to haul about 2K pounds of sand for my father in law and guess what, it was smooth as butter, I even took a detour and took off on a steep hill, no shudder. So obviously no tranny issue. Seems once the the bed settled and the drive line angle decreased that the issue was resolved..so how do I get the dealer on this, as they said they could not duplicate?
