Lincoln Corsair: Rear Drive Halfshafts / Diagnosis and Testing - Rear Drive Halfshafts

Lincoln Corsair 2020-2024 Service Manual / Chassis / Driveline / Rear Drive Halfshafts / Diagnosis and Testing - Rear Drive Halfshafts

Preliminary Inspection

  1. Visually inspect the CV joints, housing, boots, and clamps for obvious signs of mechanical damage.
  1. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before proceeding to the next step
  1. If the cause is not visually evident, verify the symptom and REFER to Symptom Chart: NVH.

Symptom Chart(s)

Diagnostics in this manual assume a certain skill level and knowledge of Ford-specific diagnostic practices.
REFER to: Diagnostic Methods (100-00 General Information, Description and Operation).

Symptom Chart: NVH

  Symptom Chart


Condition Actions
Driveline clunk - loud clunk when shifting from REVERSE to DRIVE   GO to Pinpoint Test A
Driveline clunk — occurs as the vehicle starts to move forward following a stop   GO to Pinpoint Test B

Pinpoint Tests


PINPOINT TEST A: DRIVELINE CLUNK- LOUD CLUNK WHEN SHIFTING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

Halfshafts transmit rotary motion through constant velocity joints in a uniform manner. The outer CV joints use balls, have no length compensation and engage in the wheel hubs. The inner CV joints use balls, have length compensation, and are locked in to the differential by a snap-ring. The inner  CV  joints use balls, have length compensation, and are locked in to the differential by a snap-ring.

Possible Sources

  • Damaged or worn Constant Velocity (CV) joints
  • Loose hub nut
A1 CHECK THE HUB NUT TORQUE
  • Check the hub nut torque

Is the hub nut loose?
Yes Tighten the hub nut to specification.

PINPOINT TEST B: DRIVELINE CLUNK — OCCURS AS THE VEHICLE STARTS TO MOVE FORWARD FOLLOWING A STOP

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

Halfshafts transmit rotary motion through constant velocity joints in a uniform manner. The outer CV joints use balls, have no length compensation and engage in the wheel hubs. The inner CV joints use balls, have length compensation, and are locked in to the differential by a snap-ring. The inner  CV  joints use balls, have length compensation, and are locked in to the differential by a snap-ring.

Differential Seals

NOTICE: When installing shafts, do not allow splines to contact seals during installation or damage to the seals may occur.

Halfshaft seals are susceptible to the same types of damage as drive pinion seals if incorrectly installed. The seal bore must be clean and the lip handled carefully to avoid cutting or tearing it. The seal journal surface must be free of nicks, gouges and rough surface texture.

For information on differential seals,
REFER to: Rear Halfshaft Seal (205-02 Rear Drive Axle/Differential, Removal and Installation).
REFER to: Rear Halfshaft Seal (205-02 Rear Drive Axle/Differential, Removal and Installation).
