Guess he forgot that ...LOL

 

I think he said that he put some on it but maybe not enough.

 

Maybe he missed one

 

That's a possibility.

 

Guess he will find out...LOL

 

If Ford knowingly drilled into a water jacket, they should have the sealant that it calls for to seal it.

 

What motor does he have in there? Maybe he could look it up online

 

If I recall correctly he has a 1985 351CI. He could even check it out on the 351 forum.

 

Yeah they would have the answer

 

I found out some time ago that our trucks have a splined slip joint in the drive line behind the transmission that clunks because Ford didn't use enough of the special blue lube that is a shock absorber for the drive shaft. I relubed mine but the clunk was in the tranny.

 

I found that out on here including the part number for the lube.

 

Mine must have the correct lube.. Never heard a clunk

Sure it's not a Ujoint??

 

The Ujoint is tight and after lubing so is the slip joint. The clunk is inside of the tranny tail shaft. Can roll the drive shaft back and forth and hear it. Been like that ever since I've had it.

 

Maybe they fixed it by 2006

 

That is possible but I've heard the same noise in the big trucks that I've driven. So I've blown it off as not being a problem. Just sounds like a big truck. LOL
