Truck jerks from stop


Recommended Posts

Hi guys, I was having a issue with front brakes dragging, so I replaced the front calipers and pads, now I'm noticing that when I stop at a light and hit the gas the truck kind of jerks, it just does it when I leave from a stop. If I let the truck start to roll forward then hit the gas it seems most of the time it won't jerk, but if I let off the brake and instantly hit the gas it will jerk. Maybe the brakes are still sticking a little? Or is this a known issue?

Check the fluid level in your transmission and transfer case. At one time the slip-yokes on the drive shafts were bad about sticking from improper lubrication and causing what some people describe as a jerk. There was a service bulletin about this at some point in time but I don't remember what models. Other people have removed the yoke and added some grease to it.
