Title: Drive Shaft
Post by: jow003 on September 22, 2010, 07:33:03 am
Im finally finishing my T-case Bulls...  and im not sure about the driveshaft.  I know "the dots have to line up" but does as long as they are does anything else matter? 

Other than the correct one in front/back :P

wish i had taken a picture of it but on one side it has a triangle of dots like this, does that mean the other side's dot has to be within those or even with the back one?

Dont get dirty with it  :P

You should be looking for single dots.  There are no "triangle of dots" put on either part of the shaft from the factory.

Those are welded on balancing weights not alignment marks

That is what I was guessing he was looking at too.
