asked by on January 11, 2017

How long does it take to replace a center bearing driveshaft for a 2007 ford edge?

My car has 130000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.

Hi there. That’s very difficult to answer due to the multiple variables involved in removing and replacing hard to access components such as the center driveshaft on a front wheel drive vehicle like your Edge. However, in general, this type of job can often be completed in one business day; or less than 8 service hours.
