Shimmy in my Gidiup....
From a dead stop at a light or stop sign....

When I hit the gas....the truck shudders until I reach about 25 mph....

UJoint?

How to diagnose?

Thanks in advance

A ujoint should be noisey when going forward/backwards, I haven't heard of one making the truck shake that didn't throw the driveshaft across the road.

Does it shake any other time?
