A few years ago I interacted with Bill through the f150online forums, and he was so very nice, however, due to life getting in the way I could not follow up with my issues or my contact with him.
Ive had some programmer issues lately so I have been poking around trying to get some programmer stuff done and it all lead me over to here from f150online. After reading the site information, this place sounds like a warm and way more intimate formum hosted by some truly good people. My name is the same from the f150 forums. I have some neat interactions over there and it looks I will have the same for this forum as well. ![]()

Glad to have you join us Texas!
![]() I don't know that any of us can offer more than you've already gotten, but feel free to ask. Did you get any response from Edge? Regarding the "shudder" problem, can you be more specific? Does it happen at or near a shift? If so, there may be something you might try. - Jack

FYI--for those who dont know me from f150online (and Im sure thats pretty much everyone)....
I bought my 2005 brand new in completely sock form. 5.4 V8, towing package, fx4 package, captains chairs with conlole shifter, fabric interior, extened cab 6.5 ft bed, 17" wheels with 3:55 gears. this is my leveling kit with 32" tires and lariat 18" wheels. ![]() I have alot of fun with my truck.. off roading.. ![]() mudding ![]() towing ![]() Im not just a poser, and daddy didnt pay for or build my truck for me (as I have been accused of many times before). I have built my truck from day one with help from friends and my boyfriend. We do all of our building in our own driveway, even the lift was done in the driveway on jackstands and dedication. This is the hardwork and rewards that come from having a great hobby like this. I hopt to get very good with everyone here.

THANKS! I tried looking at their site but they have so many names for all the downloads and so many warnings that Im very reluctant. Im not even sure what edge I have right now.
JackandJanet--I did search the posts on this forum already though, and found a problem similar to mine. You and others suggested that he change the torque converter lockup up and down (Im paraphrasing). this made his problem go away. You may not remember the post. Ill try to find it.

Now, that may not be what you want, since you do a lot of offroading. You may find things work better if you raise these settings, which should give you more power. Make small changes and see what the effect is. Looking at your pictures, you've probably put larger tires on, and keeping the truck in a lower gear longer should work better for you. - Jack |

Yep, the flutter is a common problem because that is also a common speed in slow traffic or small towns.
As Jack mentioned, I have also turned all my shift points to the minimum to keep RPMs down in stop and go traffic. When I approach the shift zones I'll just drop the shifter into 2nd or hit the O/D off button to drop down into 3rd. That way the truck avoids unnecessary shifting. Pictures are worth 1,000 words and this is handy to remember when you are adjusting shift/lock points. ![]() Feels weird to think I made this two years ago for a very similar problem...but for a guy way up north (north Texas that is ![]()
