    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) torque converter lock/unlocking problems

    During very mild(city driving) acceleration, at about 45mph I feel the TC lock up as it is supposed to, but then I feel it unlock and then it will try to lock again, and the cycle repeats at any speed I try to cruise at. The rpm jumps up and down accordingly about 500rpm or so.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) torque converter lock/unlocking problems

    One more thing. I forgot to mention that the problem re-appeared last Thursday after a rain storm. It has not gone away altho the rain left by Fri . Does that little factoid have any further bearing on your answers/suggestions?

    Thanks for your input. And holy cow, that's some kinda great drag times!! Congratulations and WOW. I'm just trying to stay 'legal' in liberal, nanny-state California. Am enjoying the surprised looks on faces on the freeway on-ramps.

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Suspension damping

    Appreciate all your responses. I do readily admit I am being 'picky', I want what I want. I have the Penske triple adjustables on my race car, so I knew that what I want COULD be had, but was hoping there was a less expensive solution. Due to the "significant" difference in expense, I'm dialing...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Suspension damping

    1) This is a street truck that is used to tow the race car. It is also used to carry up to 1ton of transformers and/or materials in the local area. 2)What 'better model of shocks' do you have in mind? 3)What do you mean about 'some good suspension'?

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Suspension damping

    I have installed a set of the Bilsteins(Yellow/blue) on my 98. 5 2500 QC LB and am very happy with the 'BUMP' damping but very unhappy with the 'REBOUND' damping.
