  1. That's awesome.. I hope I see 360K... Literally.. as I think the truck will out live me LOL
  2. I hope it is paranoia.. I'd like to get together with someone who has had one for a good while to give mine a look and feel to set my mind at ease.. lol. The more I read about problems.. the more I look for. Yikes...
  3. How do I check?
  4. I went out to look.. can't find tick marks. Are they indentations or marks?
  5. Okay.. checked damper. Looks okay based on what you said.. yes? Flex plate? Can that be felt in park and giving it a little rpms? This past weekend I did an 800 mile round trip with my camper (8500#) and a couple of times when I tried to kick it down a gear by giving it heavy acceleration.. it kicked in out of gear hard.. related?
  6. LOL.. you guys are presenting ??? to me. I'm the newbie. How do I check flex plate or damper? Rear ABS... Yes.. it stops smooth but seems like all my braking is done up front. I don't think pulsing would describe it.. hand tingling vibration is accurate and I can feel it in my foot. It might me a little more pronounced during turns.. I just went out and checked again.. in park at idle it's subtle.. accelerating more pronounced. Maybe I'm being paranoid?
  7. Best way I can describe it is.. similar to a the vibration of an electric tooth brush but heavier.. minus the sound
  8. Hello all... I was invited by Tyler to come hang out here. He said there was a great bunch of people here. Is this true??? ;-) Anyway.. Being such a newbie.. I'm not sure if I'm being paranoid. Hopefully I can explain this correctly. When I bought the truck about 6 weeks I could feel a little vibration in the steering wheel and both pedals. I attributed it to the motor and figured it was normal being a diesel. Well.. recently it seems to me to be a little more pronounced where it seems to be resonating thoughout the cab.. It happens at idle and driving any speed. It's a very fast vibration and it kind of gives a tingly feeling to my hands and foot. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Thanks!
