If you have a 97-99 expedition/f-150 with the 12mm wheel studs your lug nut torque is 100 ft/lbs but if you have a 00-02 expedition or 00-04 f-150 you have 14mm wheel studs and your lug nut torque is 150 ft/lbs, just wanted to let everyone know who is doing this repair. Great video!
fantastic video. I have to do this on my 2001 F150 today. 150,000 miles and still going strong!
exactly what m. mcchesney said below... thanks, I would not have approached this with as much confidence if it wasn't for this video. doing the ball joints and tie rod ends on my 96 Dakota. the front axle is in the way, and I was nervous about taking it off, but not any more!!!! thanks again!
Great video. Found that the bolts on the diff side had some type of thread locker on them; so after busting my elbow getting the first one out; added a little heat with my soldering torch about 5 sec. After that they came right out.
Thanks for posting this.
Thanks for sharing! I would not have approached this project if the video didn't show how easy it was. I did it yesterday in a couple of hours. Recommend verifying the bolt sizes before you get started. Glad I did, as some of the bolt sizes on my 2001 F-150 were different that those described in the video. (Mine required a 12mm 12 point socket vice 13mm.) Also, having deep sockets will make removing the stabilizer links much easier.
Normally a vibration from the front drive shaft is related to it being out of balance or the u-joints being bad.
by the way thanks very much i learned from you i have ford expedtion you are amazing thankx again from Egypt
The concept will be the same between the two vehicles but the tools necessary will be different.
Great video , thank you. My front pass side axle recently broke..
do you have to take the balljoints out? Top bottom or both. I see that you took off the tie rod end also. It would be cool to have that info in the video or in the description. Thanks for the great video! The Tools to do those things would also be handy to have.
Nice video very informative. I have a 1998 f150 4x4 5.4 l. I was planning on replacing my cv axle. My manual says you have to remove the steering knuckle. It doesnt appear that is necessary to do. The manual also stated you have to remove the fan and clutch to replace the radiator and that was not the case. Any info would be much appreciated. Best regards.
A previous poster asked if it is necessary to unlink either of the ball joints (upper/lower), but your answer was to refer to the video. Is it necessary to remove either ball joint? Also, in the video, you show the tie rod removed, then installed, but you make no mention of this. Is it necessary to unlink the tie rod? Can you answer my two questions without telling me to refer to the video? Thank you.
great video.I have a 1998 f150 which I took to the dealership to have a clutch replacement done. afterwards I had a new vibration and he said that I needed my front driveshafts replaced. I looked and the front driveshafts look good without any torn boots or leaks. is there a way to examine or test them? Thanks
This truck was a 97, it may be similar to your application.
and the bolts on the axel shaft....there are 6 of them...they are 12MM 12 point bolts
Thanks!
Is this process similar for both driver and passenger side. Also will locking the 4wd in keep the axle from spinning freely.
My axle snapped at the wheel hub how do I get the shaft to stop spinning so I can get the bolts on the other end off?
Thanks for the video. Is it necessary or optional to grease the splines of the new cv axle shaft? I changed the passenger side a couple months ago and now realized I have to also do the driver's side, but did not grease the splines on the last one (just slid the splines into the hub dry). Should that be of any concern?
If you follow the steps taken in this video, you should be able to perform this repair just like we show in the video. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
great video did you loosen the stabilizer link on the other side? and how long did it take in the shop? Book labor hours?
Another question can a 99 Ford Explorer 4x4 get stuck in 4x4 high or low? And how can I get it to normal .. another one when I turn my wheel I hear gears grinding what could be going on? I thought it was the axles but those are fine.thanks
I have an 01 expedition at low speeds when warmed up when I turn I hear and feel it grind or rub , it’s not the tires I checked when I straighten out it goes away could this caused my bad cv joints?
Awesome video. Thanks!
You shouldn't have to remove the ball joints. You may need to undo the tie rod from the knuckle for extra clearance. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
We have a video on the 97 Ford Expedition that shows you how to remove the CV axle, this might help you out. copy & paste PpdI1BNkow8 into TH-cam search.
Sometimes if you put the vehicle in reverse and back down the road a little bit in reverse it will unlock the 4WD for you. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
Hi Allen, Yes it should be pretty much the same procedure on both sides. I'd recommend doing this in with the vehicle in 2WD. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
Are these rather similar to a 97' Explorer 5.0 AWD?
Anyone find a video on this repair for a 2000 Ford Explorer 5.0 AWD?
Why does my new CV axle squeak after installation?
Love your video very profesional
Thank you for watching!

do you have to remove stabilizer link?
Thanks for checking us out. Have a great day! 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
Need help taking cv axle off 99 4x4 explorer thanks
Thank you!!!! thank you!!
We carry new replacement axles on our website 1aauto.com, we currently do not have an auto repair video for this repair. 888-844-3393
I followed all these steps but when I do a road test the truck feel like Im on a bumpy road any thoughts on this
My truck is a 2000 f150
+obm barajas Thanks for watching! If you are still experiencing this issue and you are unable to diagnose the issue, then I recommend you have a reputable mechanic take a look. That way you can find out what is wrong with the vehicle, and get the correct parts to fix it! 1aauto.com
Still the same I take it apart again and I got the same result
Is this axle related to the A4WD module? I mean, if it's broken will the A4WD work? I ask because my Expedition makes a "cracking'' metal to metal noise when I turn right or left.
+Leo C You may want to take a look at it and also see if the wheel bearing is bad, 1aauto.com
ok, I will take a dive. now, what is the socket size for that weird looking bolt?
if anyone is still wondering its a 12 mm 12 point socket or wrench to remove the 6 bolts on the diff side @@memmotronic1
At 5:52 what is that long bar called in middle of screen with the rust on it
+cmbm06 Thanks for checking us out! That would be the tie rods which are joined with the adjusting sleeves. 1aauto.com
the axle nut magically disappeared lol
what is the torque spec on the spinfle nut
220 foot pounds, he said that.
Shouldn't have to remove anything else. Unless of course they're bad already. (i.e. ball joints, links, etc.)
👍
That brake rotor is fucked!
