A driveshaft is a tube that transmits power between the transmission or transfer case and the differential(s).

A conventional grease gun should be used to apply sufficient lubricant to the fitting.

If it's a two-piece driveshaft, mark the relationship of the center support bearing to the support bracket, then unbolt the center support bearing and slide the front end of the front driveshaft out of the extension housing.

To install the driveshaft, remove the plastic bag from the transmission or transfer case extension housing and wipe the area clean. Inspect the oil seal and center support bearing. Insert the front end of the driveshaft assembly into the transmission or transfer case extension housing. Raise the rear of the driveshaft into position, checking the alignment marks. If it's a two-piece unit, raise the center support bearing and bolt it loosely into place. Raise the rear end of the rear shaft into position and make sure the alignment marks are in alignment. Remove the tape securing the bearing caps and install the clamps and fasteners.

A conventional grease gun should be used to apply sufficient lubricant to the fitting.

Whenever the driveshaft is removed, it must be reinstalled in the same relative position to preserve the balance.
