I've often heard that driveshafts with slip yokes should be phased so both yoke "ears" are in alignment, as opposed to being 90* out. I just wanted to confirm this before installing my driveshaft. What's the verdict? |

yup one tooth [spline] off on the slip yoke and it throws the u-joint phase out and can cause vibration - binding and shorter u-joint life

Lol, I love the pic though. I've struggled a few times trying to explain about how the yokes need to point the same way or how the caps need to be lined up or some other confusing way of describing it. That pic sums it up perfectly.

I do believe this thread is FAQ-worthy.

Avoid replacing any part that you have not proven to be faulty through extensive testing. |

Why? Your text above and below your picture contradicts itself! You're gonna totally confuse him! I think hybrid was more then capable of understanding, but I did rewrite it for the folks with a lower reading comprehension capability, thanks for the suggestion. |

Actually, it seems from re-reading your text and reading responses of some other folks, there might be a picture you're showing that isn't coming through here at work. I just see the one diagram. Hence the text seems like it would be confusing.  |

Yes a pirate picture of actual driveshaft. Pirate may not allow remote hosting, I'm not sure. If you cannot see it, you can still click here: http://www.pirate4x4.com/tech/billavista/PR-shaft/phase.jpg |

That link comes up as FORBIDDEN. That was sort of dramatic, eh?  |

Not only do you get two for the risk you took of creeping around pirate (you never know what you might contract), I'm also going to take a picture of a correctly phased driveshaft, so RCC has their own. |
