got a question i hope you all can help me out with. Specs for my ranger are: 1997 XLT 4x4. 4.0L V6, 5 speed M5OD.
I was wondering if there is any bolt on single piece driveshaft that would require no mods other than removing the carrier bearing support? I have a 2 piece now, and have an obnoxious clunking noise on most take offs, and changing directions (forward to reverse). i would like to eliminate the carrier bearing as the issue, i already replaced all the U joints.
Does anyone know what the clunking might be? i've heard of the slip yoke bind, but this seems to get worse the more stress thats put on the driveshaft (backing out of a sloped driveway vs flat for example). thanks for the help!
