    Hello to all, I’ve done tons and tons of research on this and have even taken it to the dealership. It is a very minor vibration/shudder but is something I want to fix. The slower you go off take off the less you feel it. Also not as bad when truck hasn’t warmed up all the way. I’ve changed diff fluid, trans fluid, new u joint, greased u joints and it’s still there! Dealership told me everything checks out fine and to just drive it. I do have the “clunk” feeling at times when coming to a quick stop. Not sure if that could have something to do with take off. I’m running out of ideas to remedy this so any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

    The "clunk" might indicate one or more worn motor mounts/transmission mount(s).

    Your carrier bearing may be wearing out... have you pushed on your drive shaft to see if there is a lot of movement?

    I’ve inspected it in the past and it’s not rotted or anything. I will double check the play when i get a chance. Thanks
