F-350 4x4 Vehicles incorporate a double Carden universal oint in the front driveshatt. NOTE: Whenever the vehicle is raised on a hoist, ingpect the universal joint slip yoke boot for rips or tears. Replace if required. CAUTION: Under no circumstances is the driveshaft (4602) to be clamped in the Jaws of a vise or similar holding fixture. Denting or localized tracture of the tube may result which could cause driveshett failure during vehicle ‘operation. Driveshaft, Rear ‘The driveshaft or coupling shafts composed of the universal joints, connecting shafts, altaching flanges, and slip-yokes. The number of shafts and universal joints used dopends onthe vehicle application Some vehicles use a one-piece stool or aluinum Sip.yoke type driveshaft A universal joint and opined cvoshat Sip yoke are located a the transmission end of the shaft, where they are held in alignment by @ bushing inthe extension housing (7A039). The apined ‘driveshaft slip yoke and transmission output shaft allow fore and aft moverent ofthe iveshatt as the Tear axe (4001) moves up and down. This provides smooth performance during vehicle operation. Ano ‘seal at the transmission (7003) prevents leakage and protects the driveshaft sip yoke from dust, dit and other harmtul material. A rear universal joint attached by ether two Usolts or two straps and fou nuts are used where the driveshaft mates with tho rear axio ‘companion flange atthe rear axl or acriveshaft rear flange on vehicles equipped wit circular rear axlo ‘companion lange. “Bd Econatinn F-180, F260, F360 Bronco’ F Super Duly Powertrain Drwvetran Avg 1908 05-00-3 Axto and Driveshaft, Service: 05-00-3, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION (Continued) Driveshaft Assemblies Slip-Voke Designs Part Htem | Number Description 1 [anaes ‘Snap Rings Bearing 2 | 4s95, Seal 3 | 4602 Spider 4 | s92896-8100 Driveshatt Slip Yoke 5 | s4a06-s2 Nut 6 | 386867:5, Rear Axle Companion Flange ‘ontinved Drivg Pinion Oil Seal Deflector ‘Others use a coupling shaft in conjunction with a ‘driveshaft.
