    Transmission fluid expands as it heats up. Start your truck cold, check fluid level, add if necessary to the bottom of the cross hatch area on dip stick.

    I don't think that is correct. Short of an improperly set up differential, (pinion depth, pre-load, back lash) any "movement" would be negligible. Sent from my moto g power using Tapatalk
