Gary Lewis Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 Whas the difference between an E5 deflector and D5 slinger? You can see the deflector, #4859, and the slinger, #4670, in the illustration. That's about all I know of the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArdWrknTrk Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 No, 4209 is the ring & pinion set: Okay, I'm not seeing the usual brackets around the 4209 assembly. Pics of the carnage. I'm glad I just changed my gas tank.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to find a piece of cardboard so I can go back out there, cut those bolts loose, and closer inspect the corner of the gas tank. I need to refill the 1356 because I drove 40 miles with it spewing ATF. I would make an attempt at cleaning it all off but there's not a thawed hose in 200 miles.

I went to the stealership and picked up a crush collar and nut. Stopped at AutoZone for U-bolts and a seal plus fresh fluids and a tube of the green gear oil resistant RTV. Placed an order with Drivetrain America for a new yoke and bastard (1350x1310) Spicer greaseable universal. Already have shipping confirmation and a tracking #. Now I need to find a driveshaft shop who can actually tell me if it's bent from flailing around and check for balance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or was that the yoke you could find? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason Ford loved to use those darn oddball U-joints. 🤷♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
