I have a 2001 f250 ecsb 7.3 and my converter will lock up at like 35-45mph and this is my first diesel. Should my trans be doing this or is this a sign of it going out? The truck has 148000 miles on it and not sure if anyone has been inside of the trans. The truck is bone stock.

Ya that's normal. If it shudders on lockup or kicks in and out allot then be alarmed.

Shudder or in and out? Shudder then you are over powering the clutches in the TC, in and out could be in the tuning if none of the other tunes do it. It should lock and stay locked.

I misread your earlier post, it will shudder when it locks if you're getting on it hard enough. It jumps in and out of o/d between 35 and 40 and I was wondering if that was normal?

The OD deal i think Jonathan has an update for in the tune. Its a problem with the 02/03 trucks but I think he got it fixed if you want to send it back in for an update.
