???????????????????????????????????????????

I have a nasty vibration in my '99.

At first I thought it was the lockup TC as it only seemed to do it going
into and in lockup, but I'm, pretty sure it did it the other day before
hitting OD. And in neutral this AM, I think it did it, although very
slightly by just running the engine up to 1600 RPMs...

The problem is most pronounced on the highway in lockup at 1600-2000 RPMs.
Light accelleration gives a groan/moan and a significant vibration. It's
like it's stumbling to go. Step on it some more and it goes away and the
truck accelerates nicely. Ujoints are OK, front end seems OK, got fire on
all 8 cylinders, recent plugs, cap, rotor, wires, otherwise runs strong and
smooth... Victim is 99 *Dakota*, 5.2l, Auto, 4x4 109k, Mopar Performance
PCM.... Ideas anyone?

thanks,

Rick
