okay. i was thinking of replying to this thread: http://explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=266654&highlight=cardan+cv+double+joint
but it is kind of old and i don't know how that , that works. i always search through the forums first, though...
anyway, i've a '99 sport 4x4 4.0 sohc and the front end is making some hellatious clunking. coming from front driveshaft and pass sd axle, it seems.
i've been finding stuff, like the aforementioned thread, but they all seem to be awd and not 4x4.
i know i need to replace lots of front end components, but right now can only afford to replace what is causing this clunking. i see front driveshafts are none too cheap, so if it's the axle (which we're thinking because it's coming from only one side), that's not too much of a drain on finances. it's just difficult to see what's what as we are in a driveway on jackstands and not on a lift.
planning to hobble down the hill and pay to have someone diagnose if we can't figure it out for ourselves, but it would be great if we could...
you guys are always helpful--any ideas???
thanks so much,
allyson & tom
