PROPELLER SHAFT
DESCRIPTION
A propeller shaft (Fig. 1), (Fig. 2), and (Fig. 3) is
the shaft which connects the transmission/transfer
case to the axle differential. This is the link through
which the engine power is transmitted to the axle.
The propeller shaft is designed and built with the
yoke lugs in line with each other which is called zero
phasing. This design produces the smoothest running
condition, an out-of-phase shaft can cause a vibra-
tion.
Tubular propeller shafts are balanced by the man-
ufacturer with weights spot welded to the tube.
Use the exact replacement parts when installing
the propeller shafts. The use of the correct replace-
ment parts helps to ensure safe operation. All fasten-
ers must be torqued to the specified values for safe
operation.
