Installation (2 & 3-Piece Shafts)

  1. Rotate transmission until yoke ears are on a horizontal plane. Clean yoke and inspect machined surface for scratches, nicks or burrs. Ensure all spines are lubricated.
  2. Provide support for drive shaft during installation to prevent damage to universal joints. Align marks noted during removal. Connect front joint coupling shaft to transmission yoke and tighten bolts.
  3. Ensure center bearing does not twist in support plate. Connect front and rear coupling shaft (if equipped). Attach universal joint to rear axle flange and tighten nuts to specification.
