Hi all,

Just got done buying another 12 valve. Bought a 1996 3500, club cab, 4x4, slt auto, with a utility bed, and 156k miles. I bought it for my mobile welding business that I have been running out of my truck. I like my truck but I have to keep moving tools around all the time to take the family and the fifth wheel out for fun. The only thing I my do in the next year or two is swap in a nv4500 depending on when the auto goes and 4" straight pipe it. The ne truck has a slight shimmy just before it shifts gears some times. I think it may be just a torque converter but I don't know? I did get the truck for $6500 so I hope I don't do to bad even if I have to put a new transmission in.

Glen:)

Congratulations on your new-to-you truck. I would do a band adjustment on the transmission. Chances are, it has never been done. Best part, It will cost you nothing. Good luck.
