Ranger Tow
November 16th, 2010
How do I disconnect the drive shaft for my Ford Ranger so I can tow it without damaging the transmission?
How do I disconnect the drive shaft on my Ford Ranger pickup 2X4 with automatic transmission. I need to tow it behind my RV. The manual says be careful not to lose fluid etc… Help….
On an automatic, you must disconnect the drive shaft otherwise the transmission will be damaged. There are two U bolts that only the rear part of the drive shaft to the rear end yoke. Remove all four nuts and then remove the U bolts. You will then push the drive shaft towards the transmission which will give you clearance from the yoke, then remove the drive shaft by pulling it out of the transmission housing. That’s pretty much all there is to it. If you have a two piece drive shaft, you will also need to remove the center support bracket.
