    Its a truck and it will sound clunky sometimes when shifting to drive or reverse. Not sure what you mean by clicking noise. Maybe you can record and let us hear it?

    I love the 3rd gen transmission even though there are a million threads bashing it. It’s awesome to have a 6th gear coming from a 5 speed first gen. I also think oddly enough that it shifts better with larger tires than stock. I usually throw it into s6 on the highway.
