    Check the frame around the rear hanger for the front springs. Kenworth put bolts through the bottom of the hanger into the bottom flange of the frame and the frames will crack starting at one of those holes.

    Thanx all I tightend up the bellhousing bolts as some of them took some wrenchin to snug up. I will see if that works.. The trans crossmember looks tight no sign of any rubbing around the bolts. Im def gonna check the frame around the srping hangers. Its funny becuase the truck is double framed right up the front hanger wonder why the wouldnt run it up further.. Thanx for everything so far i will check everything and let ya no what i find
