Car Forum / Ford / Ford Trucks / October 2004Driveline "clunk" on 93 Ranger
When the truck has not been used for awhile there is this clunk noise when going to reverse or fwd. It only does it the first time after sitting. It is a 4WD 4.0 engine. I gave a hand test to the drive shaft but it did not seem to loose. Anything I can do to diagnose out here in the boonies? on newer Rangers the slip yolk on the tranny spline clunks. there's actually a TSB on it. Some people have success jacking up the truck so the spline on the driveshaft becomes more exposed, and then greasing it. You can pull back the dust collar and get even more grease on the spline.This might be the same on older Rangers. > When the truck has not been used for awhile there is this clunk noise > when going to reverse or fwd.

I have this same sort of problem on my 01 SuperCrew and haven't been able to fix it yet. It makes a clunking noise as you start to slow down. Too bad its way out of warrarty. >on newer Rangers the slip yolk on the tranny spline clunks. there's actually >a TSB on it.

Grease the yoke. I had the same problem. NES >When the truck has not been used for awhile there is this clunk noise >when going to reverse or fwd. It only does it the first time after >sitting.

I have a '95 Ranger 4x4, don't worry about it. They all make that noise and it doesn't hurt a thing. Robin |
