What is your question?
Every now and then, the truck feels like it "lurches". You can feel it under the seat. Like you hit a bump or pothole or something - only you didn't. Guess is that something is slipping or binding somewhere in the drivetrain. Seems to drive fine and then it comes out of nowhere - just momentary - then it drives fine. What is it? Seems to get better after servicing the differentials/transmission - but not sure about that, then it always comes back - like one event every several weeks...

I do not know if this will help you, but it may be your TPS sensor on the throttle body. I had a 2001 Dodge truck and it would lurch also but only when the cruise control was engaged, disengaged she ran fine. This went on for 2 years getting progressively worse until I fixed it myself no help to the local dealer shops boo on them! I suggested it to them but was told, it wasn't throwing a help me fix me code so to them it was not broken, to me it was. So I replaced the TPS sensor and solved my problemo. The lurching was due to the torque converter going in and out of sequence due to the TPS sensor which tells the computer or vice versa where the throttle plate is at angle so the computer can adjust other things. This sensor was located on the right side of the throttle body as you face the truck your right. So if you have never thought of the TPS, check it out. I paid $23 for a new one at a parts store as dealer wanted to have me make their mortgage payment.
