Took her in for the Thump-Clunk...

I had a few hours yesterday morning, so I took my truck in to have the dealer look at the thump-clunk from a stop issue.

I was expecting to get the slip-yoke greased, and I hadn't even mentioned the vibe issue.

After about an hour, the desk guy tells me the truck's all set for now...but that they ordered a new driveshaft.

I'll take it, and see what happens. After reading some of the horror stories on this site, I'm just glad to have a dealer do something without me having to fight it.

I think I'll go test drive some 2005s for fun while they're swapping it out.

That sounds a little sketchy. I had the same issue, they changed
the pinion thingy and the clutch pak thingies.. The truck now
performs flawlessly for me.. No driveshaft change..
I hope they get it right for you though.

Where do you get your service done? If they already helped you, I might be better off visiting them, since they are familiar.

Good luck, let me know how it goes. They treat me well there,
any issues i've had were dealt with quickly and to my satisfaction.
