How to service and repair the axle shaft assembly on Ford Escape?

You should start axle shaft assembly servicing by first placing the vehicle in neutral mode while hoisting it into place. First, remove the tire and wheel from the vehicle before you discard the wheel hub nut. Begin service by taking out the bolt which secures a speed sensor part and set the sensor unit to the side. Lower down the ball joint bolt and nut before throwing them into waste disposal. Maintain the ball joint stud away from contacting the CV joint boot when you disconnect the lower arm from the front wheel knuckle. The front hub remover should be used to disconnect the axle shaft from its position on the wheel hub. The axle shaft remover and slide hammer should be used to pull the left axle shaft out from the differential area. A brass drift will help strike the right axle shaft at the designated location to extract it. The left axle shaft installation requires alignment of its splines with differential side gear splines followed by pushing it into position until the bearing retainer circlip snaps into place. The installation procedure involves inserting the right axle shaft into the intermediate shaft splines then feeding it until the circlip creates a firm connection between the shafts while applying specified grease on the splines. Position the front wheel hub into the axle shaft installer before inserting the axle shaft followed by fitting in the lower arm to the front wheel knuckle. Fasten the new lower ball joint bolt with its nut by applying 63 Nm (46 lb-ft) torque. Fasten the ABS wheel speed sensor by torquing its bolt to 9 Nm (80 lb-in). Statements show it is vital to avoid nut tightening on the front wheel hub when the vehicle rests on the ground since this action damages wheel bearings; users should first place new front wheel hub nuts before applying brakes to stop axle shaft rotation during tightening to 300 Nm (222 lb-ft). The last step involves installation of front tires and wheels followed by checking and filling the transaxle fluid when needed.

The Axle Shaft in Ford Escape automobiles is a significant power transmitting mechanism situated in place of rotating the differential to the drive wheels to improve grip. These steel shafts can be of different types including the solid axles applicable to trucks and old model cars and the halfshafts for those vehicles with the independent suspension systems. The differential unit and the axle shafts are accommodated in solid axles; half shafts connect the transaxle to the wheels. Axle shafts may wear out due to friction with barriers on the ground, thus developing problems such as rackets and vibration, while half shafts, often, call for replacement since their CV Joints may have worn out or their boots develop tears. In summary, the Axle Shaft is significant for providing weight bearing, for torque transfer and for keeping wheel alignment in the Ford Escape automobiles.
