Probably the spline in the driveshaft needs lubing. It's the union right behind the carrier bearing in the middle under the little accordian boot.

Take the driveshaft apart, grease the spine with some grease that Ford specs for that job and put it back together. Index everything before you take it apart to be sure it goes back together exactly the way it came apart.
