Edge and Vibration

So heres the deal, ever since i installed my Edge (level 2), my truck has had lots more power (which i love) but at lower speeds (taking off from a slow roll and cruising around 35mph) my truck bed seems to shake real bad. Now when i take the truck back to stock, the vibe goes away. My question is, if i get it switched over to a Gryphon (which i planned on anyways) with custom tunes, will that get rid of the shake? Im assuming the shake is coming from my transmission.

Anyone else had this problem?

Thanks.

I haven't. I wonder if this is related to the transmission "shudder" that I seem to recall being discussed about a year ago. I believe it was cured in updates to the Edge firmware and version info. I suggest you try updating your unit using Lightning and see what happens. Don't forget to return the truck to Level 0 before you do this though.

I wouldn't even venture an opinion on a Gryphon conversion curing this. I DO know, however, that Bill updates the firmware and version info to the latest ones when he converts the unit.

You can download it from the Edge website. It's a Windows application, so if your MAC can emulate a PC, it might work.
