This is a quiz. See if you can figure out the problem from the symptoms. I haven't even told CP about this so she can try also (We know that won't happen because she doesn't read this section, but....).

When first accelerating I get a shudder throughout the truck that lasts just a second. If I accelerate very slowly, nothing.

When slowing down I get a shudder as soon as I hit the brakes. However, if I stop extremely slowly, as in coasting, nothing.

Sometimes I get the shudder when turning on residential streets.

Please remember we're talking about BigNasty with big tires and a lift.

It took me two days to find the problem. Let's see if you can do better.

Forgot to say that I'll give you the answer tonight.

I'm guessing your rear u-bolts are loose, and causing the rear end to shift(axle wrap) and bind on the rear drive shaft. Because you are not directing as much torque and h/p when you are taking off slowly, it doesn't shudder as much. But when you stomp on it, it places lots of strain and movement on your rear axle and places strain on the drive shaft. The shuddering while turning is due to the driveshaft letting up in the other direction, when the axel wrap occurs while slowing down.

Or maybe Pea-Pie is stuck in the grooves of your tire causing it to be unbalanced!

Need more info. Too many variables. Tell us now!

Assuming we're not talking about lugs on a tire....

I'm going to say that you either have a ujoint problem or an incorrect pinion angle. Hitting the brakes will unload the rear end and hitting the gas will give a shudder if the pinion angle is off when you torque the rearend.

Nonetheless, I'm guessing something in the drivetrain. Ujoint, driveshaft, etc ,etc..

What's the answer?

Mark

My guess is somebody duct taped Pee-Pad to the rear drive line

Okay Ken, its tonight now....what's the answer? Enquiring minds want to know

something rolling around in the bed of the truck

CV style front driveshaft

rear u-joint... my guess!

Loose wheel?

NO, NO, NO!!!! Damn you all. Let's get things working...

Here's the answer that took me two days to figure out... Without your help because you all suck!!!!!!

The rear tire carrier was not fully closed, thus the lock was not engaged. Hit the gas and the tire swings out and catches the safety cable. Slow down and the tire rack BANGS back into place. You all bring the suck!!!

Sheeze..... Good thing I know my sheat.

Notice CP didn't respond here.

OH

You see, this NEVER WOULD HAPPEN ON A BLACK H2, that's why I couldn't figure it out

Would have taken five minutes to figure that out while actually driving it around versus the misleading discription given <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> Please remember we're talking about BigNasty with big tires and a lift. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>


I just wonder what the folks driving behind you thought while watching it happening, damn is that big tire going to come loose and hurt us.
