Drivetrain slack?
#16
i heard what im about to tell u on this forum last year when i bought my truck. next time u go from drive (D) to park (p) try hesitating in the neutral (N) for less then a second, the truck wont move nearly as much, and it will be much smoother. most people just grab the shifter and fling it right over to park, i hesitate in neutral for a split second, and it feels much better. i do it every single time i go to park, now its a habbit and i find myself doing it in every car haha

I had something similar happen on my DRW this past winter, I don't know if this could help but who knows. I would notice a slight clunk whenever I would stop or start, and also whenever the rear suspension would compress the leaf springs. after repeated trips to the dealer and me crawling under to inspect moving parts we couldn't find anything wrong. the next time I was washing the truck and spraying out the wheel well I saw a wear spot on the spring hanger and noticed that the little rubber pad had fallen off the overload spring that acts as a bushing where the overloads contact the stops. Don't know if this is your situation or if SRW are set up this way, I just thought I could throw it out there. Good luck!

I'm not a tech or even a decent mechanic...but I am abuser of off road vehicles. The last vehicle I heard make that sound had a broken transfer case. I can't tell in the video's where the sound is originating though. It almost makes me wonder if there is a problem with the diff electronic locker...like it is partially engaged or something?
