Weird Half Shaft Problems??
 
I have a 98 F150 4x4 with the 5.4 its been lifted 2.5 in the front and 3" out back on 35s LTB. My problem is I broke the half shaft on the drivers side the other night. I got a new one put it on and now when I go down the road that side wants to jump up and down, but if I crank the torsin keys back down I dont do it. im stumped!!:confused: anyone have any Ideas???

Did you get a new halfshaft or a reman? Brand?

Bagotaco 05-26-2009 11:06 PM

new from Autozone I dont know the brand Ill check tomorrow

Take it back. It's defective. You aren't the first one to get "the shaft" from Autozone.

ill do that. should I try another one from there or go somewhere else?

I'd actually look for a quality reman. New Ford halfshafts are frightfully expensive.

Try NAPA or Carquest.

Update!!!! I got a new one from CarQuest Did great until the first time I took it on the trail. after that its back to bouncing down the road. but if i crank the torsion bars down its back to normal. Im gettin mad!!! ready for a SA
