Major vibration from dead stop to turning
My 2004 FX4 Screw makes a major vibration from standstill to turning in both directions. Only does it if at a stop then turning, not straight on. Its getting much worse over the last several days. The vibration is very noticeably coming from the rear, not up front under my feet like the tranny probably would. What are your thoughts?

I just put the Motorcaft Friction Modifier in mine about an hour ago and it seems to have fixed it. Mine started earlier today and was pretty bad a few times, I thought I was going to lose my rear end in no time. Put the modifier in and did about 10 figure 8's and went for a test drive and seems better than ever.
Just make sure you have a flexible funnel when you put it in. It's kind of a PITA.

I put new fluid in about two weeks ago and have put over a 100 miles on her and, it is much better but I still get enough vibration from stop and go turning to slightly vibrate the mirror like I was pumping some bass. Everything looked good and solid when I pulled off the cover, no shavings, metal pieces or anything like I thought I might find. Just really old fluid, not even burnt just old. So any other ideas?

75W-140 synthetic, I went with Royal Purple mainly because a buddy of mine runs it and keeps yappin about the stuff. I didn't get the Ford friction stuff (and this maybe is where I messed up) the bottles say they already have the friction reducer in them, so I did not buy the reducer. That might be what I should do. I am just ready to say what the heck and dump some in, I don't imagine it could hurt.
