Ok, so I was on my way home from my buddies cabin in Sunshine Valley (like 120km away) and I stop for gas/food about half way home. Once I get back on the highway, my truck starts shaking really bad.
It seems to shake the most in overdrive, and gets worse with speed. At 120km an hour it was rediculous. Shifting out of Overdrive made it shake less, but didn't take it away entirely. It seems to shake more at idle too, but that part could be my mind playing tricks on me.
Driving there and half-way back, I had no problems. I also spent some time snow wheeling, again without problem.
I have only owned the truck for about a month now, and it is not a daily driver, so I am still learning the details of it... When I bought it, the tranny fluid was over-full. It is still over-full (I havn't added any) but it leaks from the front end of the tranny somewhere.
The driveshaft seems good, I crawled under it and it had no give.
I am stumped.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Matt
edit- the truck is a 1989 Bronco II with auto tranny
