Well it looks like its time to swap out my tranny. After 530,000miles i think first gear is starting to give up. I was taking off from a stop light today and heard a kinda clicking come from the tranny. It kinda reminded me of when a R&P in an axle has chipps or something. But anyway after i ran into the mall to buy some more tools i came back and it was fine. Im kinda wondering what this could have been. Its only in first gear and it does it at any speed in first. But if i start the truck in second no noise or anything, so i guess its good that its only one gear right now. But does anyone know why it might have stopped? I havent had a chance to get under the truck yet and check it out so does anyone have any other ideas on what might make noise like that? Ill probly end up dropping the fluid here as soon as i get off 12 hour shifts. So i guess ill be able to see if theres gear teeth hanging out in the bottom :lol:
