well i checked my flexplate with a prybar and the only thing thats seems to be happening is the flexplate flexing when i pry on it now i got a question i had some work done on the truck a while back "tranny swap"maybe they did something bad
i need to no is there suppose to be something behind flexplate cause on mine in order i got back of motor flexplate a spacer and flexplate screws is this right

and another thing i talked to shop that worked on my truck i was told that they stripped some bolts on engine adapter so they had to tap all of them 1 size bigger i had to use a 5/8 key to remove them im wondering if this had something to do with the rubbing that i got

work was done back in september but i only used 1 1/2 tank of fuel since then maybe i mistook that rubbing sound for tc malfunction so i changed tc

im out of ideas guys might be thrust bearing but ???

 

If you can't slide the crank back and forth, then the thrust bearing is OK.

 

wanna crank does not seem to slide i took a 2 feet flat prybar to it and the only thing happening is flexplate flexing
