Re: Truck shaking in 1st gear

I have the same issue. When I first got the truck 5 years ago it had the original 250 with a 3 speed trans and always shuttered in 1st. I pulled the engine to reseal the engine and replace the piston rings. Had the flywheel turned and put a new clutch in at that time. Still shuttered. Thanksgiving of last year I bought a built 250 from Tom Langdon and installed the same flywheel and clutch. Worked smooth for about a week and then the shuttering came back. I drive it every day 70 miles round trip. If I park it for a few days and drive my H3 it wont shutter for a day but it always comes back. Sounds like I need a new flywheel and clutch as well!

I have replaced the carrier bearing and universal joints as well.
