The noise is from under the truck while trans is in first. Does it when hot or cold. The noise sounds like a very loud AC clutch engaging and dis-engaging.

Has anyone had this problem?

BTW, yes I do have the one piece driveshaft.

Thanks, Steve.

Sounds like leaf spring slap. Check to see if all the insulators are on the overload leaf. They may be the "older" type, which are more prone to making a "slapping" noise, or just gone. If you are still under warranty, there is a TSB on them and an update. Mine are still original and make the noise on ocasion, but it doesn't bother me. My wife doesn't like it, but then I don't like most things about her car (mainly that it's a CAR).

OR....it could be something completely different. Good luck with it.
