Help !!!! - Transmission question....

Any thoughts,

It's probably the slip joint in the drive shaft. Dissassemble the joint clean and regrease and you should be good to go. I had the same bump when I bought my 94. If the bump doesn't go away, also check u-joints for slop and the rearend yoke for play, the pinion nut has been known to back off.

Thank you for the reply, I am new to the mechanical stuff so I'm not sure I could effectively correct it but at least I have some credible insight to work with. If you ever have a question on your home, feel free to ask me, I am a general contractor and home inspector in the dallas area, maybe I can return the favor. Thanks again

Thank you for your help with the " bump ", I believe that you are correct, I would like to ask you if you have any suggestions on a fluid and filter change. At my last oil change they suggested that I change the fluid and filter, I have heard that a change at 153k could be fatal to a good running tranny. Any suggestions there?
Thanks again,
Armand
