Ok i have posted about this before. i have an 02 mountaineer AWD 4.0L. it is doing a binding/hoping kinda thing during low speed turning. at first it was only when turning steering wheel all the way, but it has gotten worse and now does it truning at all at LOW speeds.I.E.(parking). i have looked up and found some info about a TSB for the rear end clutch pak. but i have also seen a post about the viscous coupling in the transfer case maybe going out?? any help on this would really help me out. oh ya i have had my wife drive it so i can look out side. and you can see the back wheel slipping/hopping when turning.??????????? THANKS
i WOULD JUST LIKE TO KNOW IF DRIVING WITHOUT FRONT DRIVE SHAFT WILL HARM THE CAR FOR A FEW MONTHS TILL I CAN GET MONEY TO GET IT FIXED. BESIDES THE NORMAL CREEPING IT DOES IN PARK???THANKS
ok so i removed the front drive shaft tonight. PAIN IN THE A**. nothing like the rear. and all the noises and vibrations and everything stopped. so does this mean its the virious coupling or something in the transfer case? ALSO will it harm it to drive without drive shaft for couple months till i can afford to fix it???
