Maintain your vehicle power by maintaining your drivetrain. Firestone Complete Auto Care technicians are equipped to fix 1983 Ford LTD drivetrain systems. Schedule your appointment.
The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your LTD's engine to its wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It’s one of your LTD’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1983 Ford LTD, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Ford's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.
You don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are all different. You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 1983 Ford LTD drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your Ford LTD may need driveshaft attention if you feel heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. It’s difficult to nail down a timeline for drivetrain repair. There’s no expiration date on the system’s pieces and parts. So much depends on the climate and your driving style. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Ford LTD doesn’t drive like it used to.
You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 1983 Ford LTD? Some smaller differential fixes, like gasket or seal replacement, can fall in the more affordable category.
