Vibration on take off

[DS 18/2500]

Brand New 18 2500 6.4l when I pull away agressivly only in 1st gear about 2000 rpms the truck shudders don't know if this is normal or not. The dealer said they don't know how to fix it.

Think I may have the same thing in my 18 Power Wagon. Sounds almost like rubbing or grinding around the drivers front tire? Haven’t checked with a dealer yet.

I believe the height of these trucks lends to a less than optimal pinion angle for the drive shaft. So upon take off there is a slight shudder. I had the same problem on an older lifter truck. I was the only person who could notice it though. Most people don't notice anything. At least that's what it sounds like you're describing

Could be the slip yoke on the drive shaft.

The truck has been at the dealership for 2 months they can't seem to pin point it. Only has 2k miles on it. I drove a nother new truck with 5 miles on it and it seems to do the same thing. Feels almost like clutch chatter only when pulling away on hard acceleration but it's an automatic . I'm thinking this is just how they are

Could it possibly be the difference between the 4 link and 5 link rear suspension...

I have the 5 link and no shudder or vibration.
