How to Service the Rear Drive Shaft of a 4X2 on 2000 Ford Ranger?

Vehicle service for the rear driveshaft of 4X2 vehicles must start by raising and supporting the vehicle when in neutral position. You should create index marks on both the driveshaft at the rear axle pinion flange and the slip yoke which corresponds to the transmission output shaft position. The service requires removal of the driveshaft through four bolt disconnection followed by lowering the driveshaft out of the transmission while sliding rearward. The extension housing requires plugging to stop fluid leakage. New bolts should be used when installing the driveshaft at the rear axle pinion flange while performing the reverse steps of removal.
