Just curious, where did you hear about his redesign and recall? Usually a recall is only for safety related items where they want all trucks back in for an updated part. Perhaps a TSB?

My bad!!! Yes, I did mean a TSB. "Wu wu wu wu" is exactly what I was experiencing. The dealership replaced the front diff a few months ago and right after they did so it was still doing it. Apparently with my luck i got another bad one. A couple of weeks ago I met with a rep from Toyota and of course it wouldn't do it with him around, luckily two techs had documented at an earlier date. He explained to me what was going on.
