The grease from Ford is very close to 100.00 for the repair, I don't see why one could not use CV joint grease in its place. Maybe someone can give some imput on the grease they used.

Most of the symptions is a clunk when you start and stop. The clunking over a period of time could also add to a U-joint problem.

I know a guy who had the same problem with his F-350 and lubing the slip yoke solved the problem. It almost acts like a slip in the transmission sometimes.
Exactly! I thought the tranny was going bad. Just bought a '99 F250 and this is what it's doing. I'll be lubing the splines tomorrow. Thanks.
