How to Service and Repair the Drive Shaft for the 4.0L Engine on Ford Mustang?

The first step to work on a 4.0L engine driveshaft requires hoisting the vehicle in neutral with the transmission. You should index-mark the driveshaft to help with reinstallation alignment. The service technician should remove eight driveshaft flange bolts before installation while tightening these bolts to a torque value of 103 Nm (76 ft. lbs.). Be careful when fitting the driveshaft flanges to their pilots because they seat tightly; do not strike the driveshaft or its elements while fitting. The correct tool should be utilized for prying in the target area to detach the driveshaft flanges from their flange pilots before removing the driveshaft. The driveshaft flanges must be securely seated on pinion flange pilots before installing by evenly tightening flange bolts according to a cross pattern. Threadlock and sealer coating should be used on original driveshaft flange bolts when new replacement bolts are not available. The first step for installation consists of performing the reverse process of removal with fresh fasteners.

How to Service and Repair a Drive Shaft for Optimal Balance and Runout on Ford Ranger?

The first step to service and fix the drive/propeller shaft requires a twin post axle contact hoist to elevate and stabilize the vehicle. For the service repair of the drive/propeller shaft start by removing rear wheels and tires and using lug nuts to secure brake drums in position. Long exposures of running the vehicle on the hoist should be avoided for heat safety reasons. Before starting procedures, note the existing speed level before raising the vehicle speed through transmission gear operation to reach maximum vibration speed. Write down the final measured speed. The inspection should focus on the driveshaft connection at the rear axle flange with new components installed for any worn areas. During driveshaft rotation keep bands away from the balance weights then conduct an out of balance check by driving between 64-80 km/h (40-50 mph) while an assistant gently marks the shaft at the rear, middle, and front. Two stainless steel screw-type hose clamps should be installed on the driveshaft near its pinion yoke end. The clamp screws should be placed at opposite ends from the marks before they are tightened. Proceed with a baseline speed test on the vehicle and perform clamp adjustment until vibration disappears and verify the result. Rephrase the process at the front section of the driveshaft after verifying that vibration persists. Everything must end with tire replacement followed by testing the vehicle on the road.
