I thought big truck trannys didn't have synchros? I've heard this before and it baffles me. Does that mean floating isn't so ok for them afterall?

 

hell i wrote it up for my clutch to get fixed.... and so help me god if its still off i will drive back up to eddies on monday and stay until it gets fixed or call and give andy a piece of my mind until he lets me go to the KW dealership....

 

Maybe the range selector and/or splitter is synchronized?

Well against Hawk's and my own advice, I'm on the 44-64-81 route. I wanted a change of scenery. I haven't regretted it thus far; hills have been manageable. I'm parked at the J here in Waddy, KY. Lucked out and got the best spot in the place at midnight!

 

Truck is still in the shop eh? Has Cory said anything about putting you in an empty truck temporarily until your is fixed?

 

nope, i will be calling andy tomorrow when i'm leaving front royal to see if i can stop at the KW dealership in Hagerstown or see if Valley Fleet knows how to repair it..

 

Ummmmm I may be wrong but our trannys are not synchronized hence why we have to double clutch. That's the bad thing about chasing a vibration, it can be coming from just about anywhere. I was talking to a guy the other night about this same thing. He said that he sunk about $5,000 into his truck trying to fix a shimmy up front and it turned out to be the bushing on his rear motor mount which cost about $45 to fix. Good luck! Oh come on Brian, everybody loves truckin' by the light of the moon!
