How to Service the Rear Drive Shaft on Ford Explorer Sport?

Before servicing a rear driveshaft always position the vehicle in neutral gear then raise it with secure support. Index-mark the driveshaft flange and the rear axle pinion flange for proper alignment during reinstallation. Put the driveshaft into removal mode by deleting the four bolts which maintain drive flange and pinion attachment to the axle followed by lowering the shaft when ready to slide it toward the transmission output shaft. You should plug the extension housing to stop fluid leakage. Reinstallation of the driveshaft requires new bolts as the alternative is to apply Threadlock and Sealer EOAZ-19554-AA or an equivalent with WSK-M2G351-A5 Ford specification to the original bolt threads when new bolts are not available. Reverse the steps of removal to install the complete transmission unit.
