Version 4 of the trans linkage clip is still holding.
I have a weird issue I can't figure out because of the circumstance around it, well, actually it's two.
The first one: Any time The brake pedal travels a certain distance (far enough to actually come to a stop) I get this noise like a rubber boot slipping up a shaft, or dropping marble sized balls into a container. The completely stupid thing is that it only happens with the truck moving.
Second one: Since putting the trans back in, I have an intermittent grinding like a wheel bearing is going out. I thought I damaged the locking hub on the driver side (the noise sounds and feels like driver side floor pan/wheel well) when I loaded the truck on the gooseneck to bring it home. It wasn't fully engaged and popped when it did lock.
It isn't yaw dependent, and not speed dependent. When it does do it, it seems like I can moderate it by going on and off the throttle. I can't duplicate the noise on jack stands.
It would be identical to a wheel bearing going down except it comes and goes and doesn't change with side load on the wheels. It actually seems to stop in a curve, probably because I'm off the throttle.
It isn't gear specific, and not constant, so I don't suspect the trans. It's more like something contacts the floor pan.
I may just proactively replace the booster and master cylinder. At 275k I'm sure they are both worn.
