Installed the servo and driving normal it shifts great. When accelerating faster it makes a strange noise when shifting into 2nd. I read over on performancetrucks.net or something like that, that a guy had a noise and it was due to the serp. belt. Just wondering if any one else had experienced the same thing. Oh found the link again.

mine does it too. I would imagine its the serpintine belt not keeping pace with the RPMs during the shift. I put replaced both belts and it still does it. almost sounds like a blowoff valve. Mine will do the 2-3 shift as well, but it slams when it shifts lol, no slip. I doubt it would do it stock since the shifts aren't as firm.

Ok thanks guys. I know its not the tires, thought it was the servo in the case messed up. But after finding the pt thread i am starting to think its the serp belt more and more. If it is the serp belt how long will it last slipping like that. And if i do replace it will it keep slipping like bottomline2000s. Is there a way to tighten the belt more so that it wont slip? Thanks again.
