A Ford tech's take on "THE CLUNK" (THE ONE and ONLY CLUNK THREAD)

[swoop1156]

This is awesome.

 

[Truck Wolf]

Awesome. I take back every bad thing I said about Ford!

 

[swoop1156]

I don't go to the "Ford" dealer out here; I prefer to use the Lincoln dealer. They treat my vehicles better and don't screw around.

They should be able to look up the same information and fix my stuff just the same, right?

Swoop, here you go.

You should be good at the Lincoln place. They will have access to everything they need.

this is great news!!!

This one took a strange turn Truck Wolf, wouldn't it be more productive to write Ford letters about your dissatisfactions instead of lashing out at members honestly trying to help others out on an internet forum?

 

[Truck Wolf]

Checked w/ my service manager today and he's heard nothing. He's going to make some calls and let me know what he finds out.

See, like i said, you dig yourself into holes and then end up proving that your a complete moron with these quotes. Others will see into your stupidity.

Sooooo, I guess I can't count on you to throw me a rope or hand down a ladder? Could you at least get Lassie to go find somebody for me?

past mechanic

.....and "current" mechanic. Sheesh, do I need to do all the research on myself for you?

What the **** does obama have to do with anything related to a Raptor. YOU are a COMPLETE MORON. Proof is in the pudding.

Aaaah, that one was actually for Truck Wolf.

Over and out peoples. SoCoMech has been exposed. He is hiding some agenda, What? You figure it out.

I doubt it's the last we'll here from you, trolls need responses to keep thriving. So if my agenda has been exposed, then why would people need to still figure out what it is? Wouldn't it be obvious, like your trollness?

SocoMech's initial post on this thread was nothing but dismissive and condescending. Go back and read it if you don't believe me.

A concern that I don't even have, yet I started a thread to address it FOR ANY RAPTOR OWNER who shares the love that I have for this awesome vehicle. Get something straight Truck Wolf.....like you, I have a job that I go to and pay attention to what's going on. It was my JOB to deal with issues like this everyday......How many trucks have you had that had this issue? I'm willing to bet that it's nowhere near the amount that I've dealt with. I didn't have to start a thread about this and share just some of my MANY experiences with it but, I saw alot of talk about it and wanted to offer some insight....from somebody who has dealt with it on MANY occasions, I'm not expecting some all-mighty thanks for it either. There's nothing dismissive about my post, I've even ackowledged that it is one of the more common concerns.....but everything I wrote in there is truth.

His juvenile responses to my honest concerns are likewise very lame.

I've had 2, TWO, DOS comments to you......

Not a surprising post from you.

Considering the content and implied meanings of alot of your post's, there really is no surprise that you wrote that and that I replied that. There's other members here to call you out on it, not just me. The other comment was just recently in this thread but that was more of a smart-ass remark towards you after seeing the Bin Laden thread.....which I'm not even going to get into. It doesn't matter what anyone here says, you're just so set in your ways that this is a borderline conspiracy against you. You even let us know, multiple times, that you were thinking about giving it back under lemon law.........dude, WE GET IT! Your pissed that this is happening! We know! And even when a member tries to tell you that we're not implying that it's not an issue or to ignore it, you just strike right back with your paranoid rhetoric. We get that you're frustrated......no, we don't think it should be ignored and like I posted in another thread....and it even goes for you "I don't have the issue but I hope this works out for you guys". I want every Raptor owner to enjoy this awesome truck.

Now he's got some of his "Ford Tech" buddies posting similarly ******* responses.

So I guess it's safe to assume then, that Raptor Speaks is a friend of yours? Yeah, all my "Ford Tech" buddies have secret decoder rings that I send out messages to via subliminal radio messages. I'd use a courier but I heard that's too risky.



Now we've had some good laughs the past few pages, I got my first internet troll/call out (guess that means I've made it?) and hopefully some air has gotten cleaned up........NOW BACK ON TOPIC so that the Raptor owners who suffer from this concern (and that's not every Raptor owner Truck Wolf) can hopefully come in here and either learn something about it or add MEANINGFUL content

Hey everyone, I got some good news for anyone with the clunking concern. Ford just called and notified me that a fix will be available next week. It is a special nickel plated slip yoke that gets installed. Not a big deal. So i'd wait about 2 weeks and give your local dealer a shout, and they should be able to take care of things for you.

Will this have to do with the new part number being seen on the driveshaft? The BC rather than BB suffix?
