1979 Ford F-150 F-250 Bronco Front Axle Assembly Exploded View Diagram

This is a photographed page from a repair manual (Chapter 8, 'Clutch and driveline', page 8-13). The page presents figure 18.2c, a large exploded-view illustration of the front axle assembly for the 1979 Ford F-150, F-250 and Bronco. The diagram breaks down the complete front drive axle into its individual components with text callouts, including the spindle assembly, hub and rotor, 'Hub-Lok' seal runner and lock nut hub assembly, drive gear and roller retainer, locknut, universal joint shaft, shaft assembly, slingers, seals, steering knuckle, joint assembly, deflector, differential side gears and pinion gears, ring gear and drive pinion, bearing cups and cone-and-roller bearings, inner front and inner rear slingers, shims, housing assembly, castellated nut, and cover assembly with gasket. A reader can use this page to identify the names and relative assembly positions of front axle parts when disassembling or rebuilding the front axle on these vehicles. The page contains no torque specifications, part numbers, or written procedures, it is purely an identification/exploded-view illustration. The photo also incidentally captures part of an adjacent manual page and some 3M sandpaper packaging in the background, which are not part of the document content.
