1594.41 | Should a 4x4 have any steering twitch when starting up? | UNIFIX::FRENCH | Bill French 381-1859 | Mon Apr 28 1997 09:36 | 12 |
| I test drove both a new and slightly used (6Kmikes) F150 4x4 this weekend.
I noticed on the used vehicle, a slight click or twitch in the steering
whenever I stepped on the gas when starting from a stop. Is a bit of
this expected in a 4x4 or is there something wrong. (It is warranteed
by the selling dealer for 36K miles/ 3 years, but I don't want to buy
someone else's problems. I didn't notice this in the new one that I
drove but maybe this is expected after break in. Any opinions?
Thanks,
Bill

| Was this a "full-time" 4wd system? If it was, I'd be looking for worn
suspension parts - like joints/bushings on the control arms - that are
allowing the front wheels to relocate...

1594.43 | Not full time 4WD | UNIFIX::FRENCH | Bill French 381-1859 | Mon Apr 28 1997 14:15 | 10 |
| Was this a "full-time" 4wd system?
Nope, lever on the floor - 2WH-4WH-N-4W
With Automatic hubs.
I had just taken it out of 4WD in a dirt parking lot. Maybe it had to
do with hubs unlocking.

1594.44 | locked hubs? | CSC32::HULL | | Mon Apr 28 1997 14:43 | 11 |
| re: 1594.43
After taking the truck out of 4wd you have to backup one full car
(truck) length to unlock the automatic hubs. If you do not, then the
hubs are still locked in, and when you turn at slow speeds it will feel
a little different. I would have the truck checked out before purchase
in case there is abnormal wear in the suspension.
Good luck

I've got a 97 F150, non-4 wheel drive. There are two known
problems and fixable via the dealer.
1. Play or a jerking motion in the steering wheel. Ford
recommends a re-packing. The dealer told me it does not
always fix the problem they normally just order the
part and replace. Mine will be done with the next
oil change. A 30 minute replacement of one of the steering
linkage pieces.
2. A sqeeking noise, simular to a ratling chain in the front end
between 15 - 35 miles per hour. The fix is to remove the top
shock bolt, repack and retighten. Works like a champ. The
noise went away and never returned.
