Front Propeller Shaft: Inspection: Vibration
If vibration is present at high speed, adjust the propeller shaft phase first.
- Check the propeller shaft for bend and damage. If damaged, replace propeller shaft assembly.
- Perform a cruise test drive to check the propeller shaft for runout. If vibration occurs, separate propeller shaft at final drive companion flange; then change the phase between companion flange and propeller shaft by the one bolt hole at a time and install propeller shaft.
- If vibration is still detected, measure propeller shaft runout after removing it. Refer to INSPECTION .
