#2929 of 2986 Ford Ranger clunk noise after startup by rangeral
May 01, 2011 (4:23 pm)
After 4 or 5 seconds, my 2006 Ranger XLT 4x4 (52k miles) has the "clunk" driveline sound after startup, while still in park and in 2wd mode which seems strange. A slow take-off right away, forward or reverse, will emit the same loud clunk. Just bought it used and the dealer has already lubed the slip joint. Not sure of the purpose of a slip joint, but still the cause? I'm sure the dealer will not want to replace it, but it's still under the 60 day warranty. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Is it the ABS doing its self-check?

Abs is fine. Not that. Definitely a drive line issue. Thanks for the reply.

I have a 85 Ranger 4x4 it will run for 5-10 miles then shut down but will restart after 45 seconds and run for 5-10 miles then do it all over again any ideas what it could be- wookie1 (Jun 06, 2011 10:03 pm)

Looks to me like it's a very complicated Thermostat Housing.

it's a thermostat bypass tube it is designed to allow anti-freeze or water to circulate while the engine warms up.
