Installation (2 & 3-Piece Shafts)
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
