video CRACKED FLYWHEEL??????????
hey so pretty much after doing a couple of good lauches i noticed a couple of days later this noise which is my guess a cracked fly wheel maybe??? so today i took starter down and checked to see for loose converter bolts which they we tight! so how common is this with a 3kstall and the flexplate looks really warped??? but couldnt feel any shake but heard a little click when turning it with screwdriver and second vid is a recent launch in 95degree weather

cracked flexplate!!
yes the sound your hearing is the flexplate! im doing a swap right now. ill post pics of the broken one tommarow! dont wait to long or youll be walking!! mine is broke where the spacer and the bolt holes are and out to the hole's in plate.. pretty easy swap to do just get a new plate before the tear down. youll have to remove the starter to get to the tourqe convertor bolts. mine made the same sounds yours did in the video. and it sounded like a woodpecker in a beer can!!! 
make sure you use some good penatrating oil on the exhaust bolts at manifolds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2005 2500 HD 2 wd
