Universal Joints
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Lincoln MKX and 2007 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The universal joints are not serviced, and are replaced with the driveshaft.
The center and rear joints are:
- a lubed-for-life design that requires no periodic lubrication.
- equipped with nylon thrust washers located at the base of each bearing cup which control end play, position the needle bearings and improve grease movement.
