Yes the same shop has attempted to repair it three times. I am so disgusted I am just going to run it, I will take it back in another 10,000 miles, thats about all it lasts!

Sounds like you have gone the extra mile with these guys. If I were in your shoes I would be on the line with the district rep. and demanding a complete, new, rear end assembly. That should only take a couple hours to install so you won't be wasting days of downtime.

I have owned 4 4X4 x-cab duramax trucks w/ allison trans.
LOVE these trucks.
I pull a skid loader trailer w/ it between 13,000 and 16,000 lbs.
NO problems w/ hills or anything else!

Mark,
Did you have any luck on the website finding the transmission seal info? If not, I can e-mail you a number to call that will hook you up with my brother in law's service department.

My 97 ate pinion bearings on a regular basis. It ended up being a bad
casting and the whole housing was replaced. Before the replacement, 6 sets
of bearings were installed. Not sure if this is relevant to your problem,
but the noise mine made was a very low hum. When the truck was put on the
rack and run in gear while listening underneath, it was quite evident where
the noise was coming from.
Hope it helps.
Jeff

I had a '95 Ram 4x4 club cab with the gas 360. Not only could it get out of its own way it got 10 mpg. The tranny went out at 13,000 miles and the axle went out at 30,000. Chrysler bought it back--got all my payments PLUS interest PLUS no deduction for miles and $4000 for accessories.
Put that money back into a '99 Ram with quad cab and diesel and 4x4. Upgarded to heavy duty trans and transfer case. At 120,000 miles and pulling a backhoe (in overdrive no less) and other heavy equipment for past 4 years with no major problems other than 4 electric fuel pumps and 5 track bars. It will plow snow like no body's business.

I find it ironic that Dodge and Jeep has been having axle problems with DANA so they are switching to corporate for the Jeeps and regular trucks and the h.d. trucks are getting AAM axles. That's not stopping G.M. from putting the
Dana 60 into the all wheel steering trucks. That's scary.

I currently Have the Duramax (GMC) with allison. I love it, No problems so far, I Have talked to dozens of Duramax owners and Have yet to speak to a single person who has had a problem although I am positive they are out there as any mechanical item may have some tech issues. I really like the way the Dodge looks, and I would love to have another Cummings Diesel, BUT... I hate Chrysler. They burned me real bad on their warranty, I thought ok just a bad dealer and kept going untill one of their factory reps looked at it, what a joke. The two guys that built my home both ordered new Dodge Trucks and they BOTH had so many problems with them that they reatained a counsler and sued under the "Lemon Law". Which sounds like exactly where I would be if I had a rear end that had been re-built that many times, good grief. My wife drives a 95 Bronco and loves it but its getting a little old. Interstingly enough Its REALLY hard to find a short bed regular cab truck (4x4) with leather seats and all the goodies. In fact the ONLY manufacturer I Find that offers this combo this year is Dodge with the Laramie. I gotta say that Hemi engine is calling me...I mean her.
