    Jan. 25, 2016
    Some 1997-2006 Ford F-Super Duty vehicles may exhibit a driveline clunk or bump that occurs as the vehicle starts to move forward, following a stop. This condition may be caused by the slip yoke not sliding smoothly on the output shaft splines.

    Some 1997-2006 Ford F-Super Duty vehicles may exhibit a driveline clunk or bump that occurs as the vehicle starts to move forward, following a stop. This condition may be caused by the slip yoke not sliding smoothly on the output shaft splines.

    Lubricate the slip yoke with Motorcraft PTFE lubricant (D2AZ-19590-A).

    Remove the driveshaft, being sure to matchmark the driveshaft prior to removal.

    Lube the slip yoke with PTFE lube with 7-13 grams of the lubricant.

    Re-index and install the driveshaft and verify the repair.
