• Q: How to replace the Drive Shaft on 2005 Chevrolet Venture?

  A: The propeller shaft replacement starts with vehicle lifting then moving onto marking the propeller shaft at both the transfer case and torque tube flanges before unbolting these components. You must first record a mark on the propeller shaft at its torque tube position before unbolt the propeller shaft-to-torque tube flange bolts. Drive the propeller shaft backward until it clears from the vehicle then extract it. The first step for installation involves connecting the propeller shaft rear end with the torque tube flange while matching reference points on those components.

Install each pair of propeller shaft-to-torque tube bolts manually but use crescent washers to maintain correct relationships. To install the propeller shaft at the transfer case flange position the propeller shaft forward and align its reference marks with the transfer case flange marks. You should install the propeller shaft-to-transfer case bolts while placing a crescent washer on each pair of bolts before using a cross sequence to torque them to 33 Nm (24 ft. lbs.).
