New or strange noises from under the vehicle are a symptom of a problem with the driveshaft. These noises can emulate from the following:

Transmission or T-Case rear bushing or driveshaft center support bearing will facilitate driveshaft malfunction. Driveshaft U-joints excessive wear or failing will interfere with the driveshaft’s ability to rotate properly. This will cause; rattling, clunking, scraping, or even squeaking sounds.

U-joints might be operating dry of lubrication, may also produce a squeaking noise at lower speeds. Clicking or knocking sounds specifically can indicate a faulty CV joint. Any noises such as these are an indicator that your vehicle is ready for maintenance. Problems with turning the vehicle is another likely sign of a bad driveshaft. A broken driveshaft can prevent wheels from turning properly, giving you trouble when trying to make turns. This issue limits your overall control of the Explorer. These issues can prevent you from driving the Explorer correctly.

With time, driveshaft sliding motion can develop grooves in the splines, and when you accelerate fast, or stop fast, the driveshaft can move more than normal, and it slips over this groove(s). The noise is amplified by the driveshaft, and you can hear it.

Shuddering Driveshaft Ford Explorer

Experiencing a significant shudder when accelerating from low speed or a stopped position, it can be another sign of failing driveshaft component. A U-joint or bad center bearing within the driveshaft may cause the faltering acceleration. You may also hear sounds while the Explorer is shuddering from the worn-out U-joint.

The essential function of your driveshaft is always to transmit energy from a point (rear of transmission or transfer case to another point with constant action. In construction, Explorers and Ford Explorers, the drivetrain was created to send torque through angles from your transmission for the axle (or auxiliary transmission). The driveshaft must go through constantly changing general viewpoints in the middle the transmission and axle. It must also be able to transforming size while transmitting torque (by way of the sliip yoke). rides suspended by springs inside an unusual, hovering motion. This indicates the driveshaft must have the capacity to broaden, change and contact working perspectives, when experiencing protrusions or depressions. This is often accomplished through common joint parts, which permit the driveshaft to be used at divergent angles, in addition to slip yokes, which allow contraction or growth to happen.
