Turbo Droan Fixed

Just got the truck back from the dealer for the transmission recall. While it was in the shop, I asked them to look at the droan between 1500-1800 rpms. They tried neutralizing the exhaust and that didn't fix it. They replaced the pedestal assembly with 5C3Z*6N639*AA. What a huge difference! The droan is gone. It was nice and quite from 1500-1800 rpms...no droan or vibration. I took it up to 2300 rpms and no droan. Very Happy!

Worked well on my old 03/6.0l.. Mine was bad enough that I had to have a stack of towels on the floor to keep my ankles from the 'tuning fork' on the bones sensations.. It did increase the lower end vibs just a smidge, but it didn't spend as much in that range.. All'nAll, a huge difference!!
