What to do if your truck feels like it is going over rumble strips?
It could actually go a month – or years. If you have a switch for turning off the overdrive (something like an O/D Off button) then turn it off. This will likely shut down the TCC altogether. If you do any long drives, esp highway-type driving don’t leave it off, but for normal everyday around home driving it will be fine.
What makes a thumping sound when going over bumps?
Here is what’s going on with my recently purchased WK 06 – When ever I go over bumps I hear a sound that seems to be coming from the front right side (wheel area) and it makes a ‘thumping’, ‘clunking’ sound, it almost gives you the impression the front strut is ‘loose’. Like I said, it only does it when going over a bump or pothole.
Why does my Jeep make a clunking sound when going over bumps?
The clunk could be worn sway bar end links, or the brake caliper rattling if it is higher pitched. You cannot tell from inspection, and have to remove the endlink from the vehicle to see the wear on the mounting holes which get enlarged. Mine were all shot at 40k, and most of my miles are HWY.

Why does my’01 4L80E feel like a rumble strip?
I did that to my ’01 4l80e just to make the trans last longer and use less fuel. The only draw back is that you can kind of notice the tcc lockup, just like you used to be able to on older 4l80e’s and 4l60e’s that didn’t have that stupid tcc pwm valve.
