Neighbor asked if I could diagnose his sons's 2001 Ranger Edge.
It is 2wd, automatic, one piece driveshaft, and has 168K.
It makes a clunk when starting out in both reverse and drive.
Not a bad clunk, but you can feel it.
The bad clunk is when it shifts from first to second.
Once in second gear it seems to run well.
We put it on jackstands to check out the driveshaft.
If you put foot on brake and shift from Park to Drive the driveshaft rotates about 3/4 of a turn then stops.
U-joints seem tight.
Told him not to drive it until I get some opinions from the experts at the Ranger Station Forum.
Thanks for any help!
