are you talking a front to back surge that happens once and a while or a constant vibration?
|
|

|
It's not constant just when the truck is under load while going up grades or when I hitsleeds of around 73mph
|
|

|
how heavy is the trailer?
|
|
|||
|
Thriller with Load Probably around 110000 lbs
|

My Guess without knowing how many miles or how hard they were is a Torque converter sudder/slipping or clutches startign to slip under load.
Change the Trans fluid and filter to start, and take a look at the fluid coming out (burnt is not a good sign, nor is seeing particles in the fluid). |

it could also be axel wrap

You probably shouldn't be towing 110,000 lbs.
You're truck is just telling you it's pissed..
