Just before coming to a complete stop sometimes get a clunk feeling....
2014 ecoboost and before coming to a complete stop I sometimes not all the time get like a clunk feeling just before I get to the complete stop. I've never driven a f150 before this one so I dunno if this is normal. Is it just something down shifting?

Can you see your gear indicator?
It is hard to determine what a "clunk" is on the internet without being there. Could be the transmission downshifting, gas sloshing in the thank, or something else.
But if you can enable your gear indicator (by pressing up on the select-shift) maybe you can correlate the clunk with a downshift on the screen.

slip yoke is designed that way, you're just feeling it bc it probably isnt greased correctly and you're getting a small amount of axle wrap. You can fix it by putting spring clamps 6" in front of the axle on the leafs, the RAS leaf kit, or bitch to your service manager at the dealer.

Bring this up to your dealership the next time you're in for service; they'll perform an inspection and determine if your truck is performing within spec. If you'd prefer, you can make a separate appointment to have this addressed specifically. Additionally, I'd be happy to get your regional customer service manager involved; PM me your full name, best daytime phone number, VIN, mileage, and servicing dealership. I'll do the rest.

Oh it'll be in spec, you can bank on it!
Mine does it, the 157" WB is more prone to it than others due to the 2 piece driveshaft, not sure what config your truck is.
Search "slip/bump" on here, it's quite common.
Save yourself the hassle of an appt and learn to live with it.
Because at Ford, quality is job 1!

I have been dealing with this issue since new. They put the special slip yoke grease on it and its good for about 2 months then back to the same ol slip/bump problem. Mine is the one piece drive shaft...supercab, not supercrew either. You would the think the oil in the transfer case would keep the splines lubed and not cause this problem.
