No skip shift on our trucks. Sounds like you need a clutch.

 

[viperhauler]

the trucks didn't come with skip shift (like the camaro's and the vette's)

if you can't get it in 3rd from second under full throttle... [politely] you need more practice...or you can upgrade the shifter... Home Page is the only company that sells new shifters, and all the guys that have them, love them...

if it's popping out...that's a different story, and you're pressure plate is starting to wear out, or it was never fully engaged...

how many miles are on her?

No years have skip shift! Vette,TA, camaro,Cobra thing for emission reg.
You need to bleed your clutch first. Check res. For fluid obviously beforehand. It really sounds like air in the line and continued forcing 3rd may have damaged the synchronizer and / or a bent shift fork. Especially the occasional popping out of 3rd. Make sure your tranny fluid is full and in good condition as well. Try inexpensive first!

good advice above^^^^

Popping out of gear is a synro, like venomous said.

But to give him hope, and there is some, we'll call it an incomplete shift and it popped out instead if a sync.

how long have you had the truck?

regardless of if you have a perfectly running truck, if you're not too familiar with it, they can be a bugger to get into third under WOT...

Does this look/sound

Like the problem you are having???



If so....practice.practice.practice and one of these http://www.vtcoa.com/forums/f47/venom-series-shifters-46946/ sure helped the driver in the video shift like a PRO now!

And every Viper (car). Probably how the rumor in the OP got started.
