Default Same old "bump"

My 2011 f 150 has the same old drive line "bump" at take off as my 2010 f 150 had. Has anybody else with a 2011 noticed this? You would think Ford would have fixed this buy now. The truck has 4300 miles on it and it started bumping at about 4000.

My 2009 f-150 had the same bump as you and even slowing down for a stop sign or at the lights it would do it as well and apparently it was normal as my dealer said but my 2011 has not done this so far with 5300 kms on it?

Pretty much every Ford i've ever owned has had that. From trucks to ford foci. I think it's just a Ford thing.

I picked my truck up after I talked them into packing the drive line with grease. Guess what, the bump is gone. I also noticed by getting it greased smoothed out the shifts. When I was having the bump there was some clunky tranny shifts. I guess if you think about it does make some sense. If some of you guys are experiencing some harsher than normal up and down tranny shifts you want to check into the dry drive line. For now all is well. I just hope it lasts a while.
