I have read alot of the post on this subject.Hope-ing for some new ideas.

I have the same truck with a similar problem. I am thinking of changing the transmission fluid. I've heard that the torque converter can get varnish on it and the local Ford dealer is seen this before. My truck has 67K miles on it, the only other problems I have are with the oil pressure gauge reading low and my cab leaks above the passenger seat. let me know how you make out with the tranny shudder
