How to replace a two-piece drive shaft on 2005 Chevrolet Colorado?

Lowering the automatic transmission gear into neutral mode followed by disabling the park brake is the starting point to replace a two-piece propeller shaft. Elevate the vehicle with support implements that maintain proper alignment between every u-joint and both the transmission and center bearing support and rear drive axle pinion flange. The external clips should be properly aligned before marking the rear propeller shaft at its positions for the pinion drive flange and center bearing support alongside the transmission. Securely remove clamps and center bearing retaining bolts of the rear propeller shaft at positions on the pinion drive flange and middle bearing. The rear u-joint bearing caps need wrapping in tape or rubber bands for safeguarding their separations while removing the rear propeller shaft from the center bearing. Begin by removing all mounting bolts of the center bearing then extract the center bearing out of the crossmember before removing the propeller shaft from its location in the transmission. Deal with installation by placing propeller shaft reference marks in alignment with transmission marks before dong the propeller shaft installation into the transmission. Attach the center bearing to the crossmember before securely bolting it with mounting bolts that should be tightened to 80 nm (59 ft. Lbs.). Use rotation of the propeller shaft to match the yoke marks with the pinion yoke before removing the tape or rubber band. Fit the u-joint into the pinion yoke before attaching clamps along with their retaining bolts which must be tightened to 30 nm (22 ft. Lbs.). Complete the procedure by verifying proper alignment of the marks and then lowering the vehicle.
