Started truck with new flexplate, problem?
This is annoying. I pulled the 2004R by myself, swaped the cracked flexplate for the new TCI plate, re-installed with new ARP bolts, torqued everything down correctly, put the tranny back in myself, and started it up. O yeah while it was out I replaced the tranny filter and gasket. So I start it up, and get a ticking noise. Looking under the truck with it running, I narow the noise down to the torque convertor/flexplate area. What the heck? There are no marks on anything that would show where its hitting causing the tick. I did notice however that on the drivers side the flexplate comes extremly close to the bellhousing, and I mean close. Fitting a piece of paper in between the flexplate and bellhousing would be hard. But again there are no marks to show it contacting there. Plus it seems like the noise is coming more from the very middle of the torque convertor/flexplate area. Has anyone had this problem before?
