Hey guys, I hope you can bring a bit of light into the darkness.
I've got a 1996 HDJ81 HD-FT automatic, and it drives super smoothly when cold. But as soon as it warms up, it "shudders" between 1800 and 2000 rpm, as well as when shifting to second and first to use the engine brake.
All fluids have been flushed and changed, and it's been fully serviced. It doesn't happen if I shift to neutral and rev the engine; it only happens under load. Both driveshafts are firm, no play.
It's constant when going uphill and holding it between the said rpm.
Anyone have an idea?
