I have put about 500 miles on my new work truck and I have noticed something funny when I take off from a stop. The truck kinda shudders like the traney is slipping or the rear wheels are hopping. This occures in T/H on normal mode under light or heavy acceleration. Only occures from a stop. Is this normal of do we have a problem brewing? The truck has about 2500 miles on it I have only put 500 on her though but that was in 3 days last week.
Thanks Tom
My Friend Has An 03 Ford Had Same Problem He Went Round And Round With His Dealer And Ford. Finally He Went To Different Dealer Tech Drove It A Couple Hunderd Feet And Said It's Your U-joint. Changed It No More Shutter. Hope This Helps.

You may have a split driveshaft carrier bearing angle problem.I would have it properly diagnosed by the dealer.

Mac's got it. My 3500 has the 84" CA. It shudders, too. When it goes in for reflash, they'll be checking it out. I don't believe they have a one-piece for this truck unless you custom fab something. CA measurement is 4" longer than an extended cab long box...

Well the real reason I video sewers is it pays the other reason is for the jokes about my job they are endless.

After doing this type of work for a while, I can assure any skeptics that video is the way to go here. Otherwise, the excavation company's laborer (read *****) has to crawl down there to investigate personally.
As a previous laborer, I like the video setups.
