Transmission shifts smooth, except from park to drive or drive to park. Also clunks when tou come to complete stop. Tranny? U joint? Rear end? Or other?

See my profile, I do not know your rig. I do know some stuff that may help you.

Seems you know some terminology, heck I probably spelled that wrong, too.

If you are going to investigate/ repair this yourself, you may need a little "MANUAL ASSISTANCE"

Not that I doubt your abilities, But why should I write a book. When somebody else already has. In order. Diagrams. It don't forget stuff (like I do!)

If you came back right here and said, "My new manual says I have 4 "U" joints, I have located all 4, I am sorta unclear on checking out their servicability, can you help?"

Turddog checks his posts 3-10 times a day, I am willing to help you, help yourself!

A manual would do you wonders, as far as troubleshooting and SCHEDULED MAINTENENCE!

When was the last, maintenece (time limit/ milage), that you changed the transmission filter and fluid? Or checked other critical things?

Mr. Transmission "MAY" be STARVING for fluid, Fluid may not be able to PASS THROUGH a dirty filter as fast as the tranny needs it.

A manual for your specific year and model is available at Autozone, Advance Auto and other parts stores. They cost $25-$30

Covers: Troubleshooting, Scheduled maintenence, Testing, Step X step repairs, Cautions, Terms, Glossery, Stuff you had on your rig, you didn't know. AND LOTS MORE ! ! !

Don't just use 10 pages of it for your fix now, read thru it, lots of stuff you should be practicing.

Keep it in your rig, in a big ziplock, for an emergency repairs, others who can help you, can reference it!

No more preaching from me!

Let me know your outcome. Go to reply to question to respond. Please HELP ME, HELP YOU !

I hunt and peck, so this is slow going for me!

Love, Turddog
