| CAUTION | To preserve 'drive line' refinement, individual parts, other than fixings, MUST NOT be renewed. In the event of any balance or driveshaft component related concern, the complete assembly must be renewed. Under no circumstances may the flexible coupling be removed from the driveshaft (or its fixings be loosened). Do not drop or subject the driveshaft to damage. |
Note. All driveshaft assemblies are balanced. If undercoating the vehicle, protect the driveshaft, universal joints and the axle shafts to prevent over-spray of the undercoating material.
The driveshaft consists of the following
- A 2 piece welded steel tube with a splined center slip joint.
- A universal joint.
- A center bearing.
- 2 flexible joints.
The splined center slip joint and the flexible couplings allow the length to be adjusted in the static condition, prior to locking the splines with the lock-nut.
