I was driving home today and once I reached about 45 mph it started struttering and shaking until I let off the gas and it would stop until I tried getting back to that speed when I got off to a side road I just put the pedal down and had no problem with the truck getting to 65 and for the rest of the drive home it seemed to drive fine was just wondering if someone could give me a heads up on where to start with this problems thanks
It could be a number of things. check your ball joints. i had the same problem with my dodge, i replaced the ball joints and it stopped. your wheels could also need alignment.

well it happens when I push on the gas when I let off it sounds and runs fine when it ran for a bit it seemed to go away totally could it deal with a bad O2 sensor maybe?
I am also having this problem. I have a 98 ram. My problem won't go away. Anytime I accelerate rapidly my truck stutters and sound like it is backfiring. Once i get up to a good cruise it stops then when i accelerate again it does the same thing. What could it be. Maybe o2 sensor?
I have a 1998 dodge ram 1500 4x4 with the 5.2L engine i have replaced everything dealing with spark and ignition and also fuel. When i hit around 45mph the trucks strutters and shakes. When i start the truck up at any given point during the day the truck sounds like it is misfiring and i pull the codes up on the truck and it states misfire cyclinder 5. I have had the computer flashed and that still has not solved the problem.
