I have driven some 20,000 miles on this truck since purchased. It had 90K plus (more since the speedometer is off by 10 MPH at 55-3 tickets later I found out). It is an f350 v10. It slams especially hard in the second and third shift. I have to back off right befoer i guess it will shift to not have it do it. It has not gotten worse. I was told it may have some shift kit or chip but that there was no way to tell. It could be something else he said.

Also, possibly connected. When I creep to a stop, the last 1/2 mph or so for about 1-3 feet there is a rachetting sound Like someone turning a crank. (not the clicking of cv joints but I cant here if it is in front end or tranny. It does it if I give it a hair of gas and the stop. Moving jkust a few feet. It does it in d 2 and 1 gear but I cant duplicate in reverse. Only at the slow speed and it is a consistantly the same sound. It has not worsened. Always did it. Truck raised 6". No dust, rocks, or rust in caps for rims. What the heck is it. Anyone had this or knows....

Thanks, great forum folks
