Product Description
What is it?
The drive shaft (also called propeller shaft or prop shaft) is a component of the drive train in a vehicle, with the purpose of delivering torque from the transmission to the differential, which then transmits this torque to the wheels in order to move the vehicle.The drive shaft is primarily used to transfer torque between components that are separated by a distance, since different components must be in different locations in the vehicle.
Driveshafts are a very precisely balanced and weighted component because they rotate at very high speeds and torque values in order to turn the wheels.When driveshaft has any sort of issue,it can affect the drivability of the vehicle.Symptoms of problem drive shaft: Clunking noises when the vehicle is in motion;Vibration that intensifies as the car accelerates;Strong vibration coming from the vehicle’s floorboards;Resistance when maneuvering the car around corners;Squeaking or rattling noises.

How to replace the drive shaft?

1. Mark the Driveshaft Mark driveshaft orientation before beginning. This will help return driveshaft to its original position on differential which can help avoid driveline vibrations once the driveshaft is reinstalled. 2. Remove Driveshaft Bolts Remove shaft differential flange mounting bolts. These bolts will be very tight so use good quality tools to avoid stripping. These bolts also use lock tight to avoid coming loose while in operation and can be reapplied when reinstalling. 3. Remove Driveshaft Flange Using a plastic hammer gently shock the driveshaft loose from the differential flange by striking the rear yoke (U joint mount). At this point the back half of the shaft will be free so hang onto it. On some cars there will be a center support which must be undone by removing two center support mounting bolts. When removing an older vehicle drive shaft use electrical tape to wrap around the u joint cups so they don't fall off and release the cup needle bearings. |
4. Remove Driveshaft Using both hands gently slide the driveshaft from the transmission or transfer case. A small amount of fluid might leak out so have a fluid catch basin ready. This would be a good time to replace leaking transmission tail housing seal, universal joints or if removing the transmission or differential repairs are needed. 5. Check U joints At this point the U joint at either end of the shaft should be checked. Grasp the yoke and move it in all directions. It should be a smooth motion with no rough spots or play in any direction. If play or rough spots occur then the U joint needs to be replaced. |
6. Reinstall Driveshaft Before re-installing the driveshaft apply a small amount of grease to the yoke. This will help lubricate the output shaft seal in the transmission or transfer case. There is a dust boot along with the rear seal which is incorporated within the transmission or transfer case tail housing seal. This transmission or transfer case output shaft is where the driveshaft connects. 7. Reinstall Flange Bolts Once the front yoke is installed pull the driveshaft back into place while inserting a mounting bolts by hand to avoid cross threading. Finish installing the mounting bolts while making sure the alignment marks are together. Tighten the bolts evenly and in a cross pattern to factory specs which is usually 55-65 foot pounds of torque. If any fluid was lost during the job check and refill the transmission or transfer case after the shaft has been reinstalled and you are all set. |
