Slip Yoke Clunk
Just bought my 97 F150 with 58k miles. As soon as I drove it a couple of days I noticed this clunk noise from the rear end when I accelerate from a stop. I found the TSB #04-26-6 on this sight. I took it back to the dealer. They lubed the shaft and returned to me. I thought the problem was all gone. But every once in a while it will still clunk. Is this normal, or should I be looking in other places? I know it is an older truck that wasn't driven much by the previous owner. Maybe I need to give it a little more time on the road.
