- 1994 Aerostar extended
Was going to drive the Aerostar from FL to Ohio to get to a good friend and his son and son's wife's funeral. Yep, all killed by a tractor-trailer they pulled out in front of.
Before we left, I noticed a rear vibration when applying brakes and investigated only to find a bad axle and bearing on passenger side. Only has 143K miles. So we took the car instead. I have never bent a Ford axle in my life, but when I go down back to FL home in one week, I have to repair this. BUMMER!
Axle and other parts are waiting at FL Oreilly's.
Anybody else out there ever bend an axle on an 8.8 rear end?
