Rear Prop Shaft (Shaft)

Post by knattrass »

Thanks again for the advice on getting the rear drive shaft checked out. The long tube had a bend in it from hitting a rock or from a fork truck lift which caused it to wobble. We had the local machine shop cut the tube out, weld and balance a new tube. $285 later.... yikes. We decided to pull the front one off to see if we could clean the spline to slip again (currently does not slip).

Ouch that's some serious cash BUT the end result of having a vibration free drive shaft is worth it.
