Noise from rear end

[jardulaney]

H I was wondering if anyone had any issues with a thud noise coming from the rear end when I come to a stop or sometimes start to accelerate? I have a 2023 ram tradesman e torque. It doesn't happen all the time but alot. Like and thump of some sort.

Did you ever figure this out?

Is this thud felt while you are beginning the process of slowing to a stop, but not completely stopping, and then accelerating?
If so, it's normal and common in vehicles with large rear differential gears and tooth spacing(all trucks) to have a slight mismatch between shaft and drive-line rotation after beginning a sequence of deceleration depending on diff's momentum and rotating mass. It's normal. What is not normal is if this happens while the diff is low on fluid. That will cause rapid wear of the gears.
