I don't see anything hitting the cab end drive shaft , what I do see is the shaft does not move back and forth on the flywheel octagon plastic insert where the front one does very easy. This must be why the cab end truck vibrates. Another thing I noticed are the axles do not move side to side at all where the front truck they do , the one near the tank moves more than the one near the pilot. If I set the frame on the wheels and move the unit back and forth the front truck the worm moves back and forth because the drive shaft is free to move in the flywheel , the cab end barely moves which is what seems to be the issue. I'm going to try a bit of LaBelle oil to see if I can free that flywheel hex up so the drive shaft moves for and aft if that doesn't do it then I need to remove that truck. I cannot even move it with tweezers. Maybe if I just remove the worm cover I can free the hex , maybe. Also I noticed the flywheel universal #232 on the problem truck is flush with the flywheel end , the front truck is set in a little maybe .010". Point is the front truck the drive shaft hex never goes flush in the flywheel universal it's out a bit and moves out further as I move the worm , the problem one is flush and never moves in or out. It's either a real tight fit or there is something behind it so it can't move. Even with the shell off I can't get at it and if all fails I might need to remove the motor to see what the problem is. I popped the circuit board off to see if I could gat at it better , not much room in there. [links]

I haven't removed the shell yet it's so hot here today. To describe what I see and hear. The front truck is quiet , the rear or cab truck if I leave it run up side down rattles and vibrates quite a bit. It doesn't sound like it needs breaking in, it sounds like something is either hitting the driveshaft or the drive shaft is not seated proper. If I rotate the truck to either side the noise quiets down quit a lot yet it's still louder than the front truck . It also quiets down to the same level if I leave the truck straight and tip either the front or rear down. It doesn't feel loose like the worm cap is not clipped down meaning the truck does not move away from the frame anymore than the front truck. I didn't pull on it , I'm just going by the weight of the truck. more

I guess the only way to know is to remove the shell and take a look. I'll let you know what I find . I can't see a thing without removing the shell . here

Once The shell is off, you can check the locomotive from end to end and see if anything is rubbing. Usually it takes some time for a locomotive to get a "Break-in" and the gear noises disappear. I like to run a new loco without a shell to be able to spot (hear) any problems.

I'm thinking since it's the cab end truck there must be something above the truck hitting the drive shaft , if the shaft was broken or out of place the wheels would not turn at all. here

Hi there. The code p0040 is for an O2 sensor connectors are being swapped. Make sure the O2 sensor connectors aren’t swapped. This can happen when work has been previously performed. Also, check for unplugged or damaged connectors, as well as broken wiring. If everything looks okay at the O2 sensors, you’ll want to inspector the O2 sensor connections at the PCM (computer). Look for damaged or crossed wires as well as swapped or broken connectors. If everything looks good on your vehicle, then I suggest replacing both upstream and downstream O2 sensors. If you need further assistance with diagnosing your O2 sensors being swapped, then seek out a professional, such as one from Your Mechanic, to help you.

My question is for my Expedition but my F250 has the same part so I trust you guys may have an answer.

On each motorized hinge on the power running boards there is a plastic coated steel cable that is attached from the chassis/body to the actual running board. It also has an attachment to the actual knuckle of the hinge. I am assuming due to road debris a small part of this knuckle was broken off. So this middle attachment appears to be dangling when you walk nearby.
