transfercase problems
 

have a 2001 silverado autormatic has a lot of jerking when starting out, seems to run smooth down the road. I think its transfercase. would some one be able to help me figure out what exactly is my problem?

Be a little more specific about "jerking when starting out." What speed, rpm, is the motor running smooth or is it surging a little?

yes......more details....I have my suspisions but need more to confirm them........alot of thought to be tranny issues are actually motor issues that are only noticed in the way the tranny performs

Transfercase problems
 

When you start out from a stop, it will jerk like you have a lot of play, also sometimes sounds like cans rolling around in the bed of the pickup. only happens when gaining speed, like slapping. Usually when you accelerate, doesnt matter speed.

I had a Ford that did that too........its probably time for a rebuild on the T-Case.
