GENERAL INFORMATION
PROPELLER SHAFTS
The function of a propeller shaft is to transmit
power from one point to another. The shaft is de-
signed to send torque from the transmission (transfer
case on 4WD vehicles) to the axle (Fig. 1,2).The propeller shaft must operate through con-
stantly changing relative angles between the trans-
mission and axle. It must also be capable of changing
length while transmitting torque. The axle rides sus-
pended by springs in a floating motion. The prop-

²Have a 3 degree maximum operating angle
²Have at least a 1/2 degree continuous operating
(propeller shaft) angle
Engine speed (R.P.M.) is the main factor though in
determining maximum allowable operating angles.
As a guide to maximum normal operating angles re-
fer to the chart listed (Fig. 4).
INSPECTION
Before measuring universal joint angles, the
following must be done.
²Inflate all tires to correct pressure
²Check angles in the same loaded or unloaded con-
dition as when the vibration occurred. Propshaft an-
gles will change according to the amount of load in
the vehicle. Always check angles in loaded and un-
loaded conditions.
²Check the condition of all suspension components
and verify all fasteners are torqued to specifications.
²Check the condition of the engine and transmis-
sion mounts and verify all fasteners are torqued to
specifications.
MEASUREMENT
To accurately check driveline alignment, raise and
support the vehicle at the axles as level as possible.
Allow the wheels and propeller shaft to turn. Remove
any external bearing snap rings (if equipped) from
universal joint so protractor base sits flat.
(1) Rotate the shaft until transmission/transfer
case output yoke bearing is facing downward.
Always make measurements from front to
rear.
(2) Place Inclinometer on yoke bearing (A) parallel
to the shaft (Fig. 5). Center bubble in sight glass and
record measurement.
This measurement will give you the transmis-
sion or OUTPUT YOKE ANGLE (A).
(3) Rotate propeller shaft 90 degrees and place In-
clinometer on yoke bearing parallel to the shaft (Fig.
6). Center bubble in sight glass and record measure-
ment. This measurement can also be taken at the
rear end of the shaft.
This measurement will give you the PROPEL-
LER SHAFT ANGLE (C).(4) Subtract smaller figure from larger (C minus A)
to obtain transmission OUTPUT OPERATING AN-
GLE.
(5) Rotate propeller shaft 90 degrees and place In-
clinometer on pinion yoke bearing parallel to the
shaft (Fig. 7). Center bubble in sight glass and record
measurement.
This measurement will give you the pinion
shaft or INPUT YOKE ANGLE (B).
(6) Subtract smaller figure from larger (C minus
B) to obtain axle INPUT OPERATING ANGLE.
Refer to rules given below and the example in (Fig.
8) for additional information.
