"Clunk" on takeoff
Does anyone know what the cause is for the "clunk" on takeoff from a dead stop. It sounds like the 2 piece driveshaft needs to be lubed up like I used to have to do to my 02 F250 every so often. Anyone had the driveshaft off and lubed up to see if that is the cause? Thanks.

Is the clunk felt when stopping as well? (Just before you come to a complete stop) What about when taking your foot off the brake to start up? Does it sometimes clunk then as well? I have all these symptoms and my dealer has been unable to duplicate the problem three times now. They said that they lubed the slip joints, but I couldn't tell anything had been taken apart, etc.... I love the truck, but this is driving me crazy. 23k miles doing it now... |

So I tried to pull the driveshaft to lube the slip joint tonight. I took out the 4 bolts at the front of the slip joint and it would not budge. Next, I removed the 4 bolts from rear end and it would not budge either. How do I get the driveshaft loose so I can pull the slip joint and lube it? Thanks, JS |

Remove the bolts from the front yoke, remove the straps at the diff for the u-joints. Then get out from under the truck. Put the truck in neutral and roll it forward a bit. I bet that driveshaft falls out.
Or using a pry bar remove the front yoke bolts and stick the pry bar up in there. It will pop out. Then remove the straps on the u-joints at the rear diff. |
