What rear-end ratio do you have? What speed is this happening? My experience with most diesel pickups, with 3.73 rear end, is that each one depending on the gear ratio has a certain point that it will do just as you are describing. My ford's point is around 60-65 mph, but if you get to 70 or a little more on the interstate, it will pull like there is no tomorrow. We also noticed this with my dad's new duramax/allison combo.

(Couldn't resist!!!----I tell my dad that all the time!!!) :o)
