How to replace a one-piece Drive Shaft on 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500?

The procedure to replace the one-piece propeller shaft starts with precise reference marking of all driveline components to propeller shaft and axles before disassembly then reinstallation of propeller shafts, drive axles, pinion flanges, and output shafts in their original positions according to published specifications and torque values. Begin by raising the vehicle. Marking of the propeller shaft must happen against the rear axle pinion yoke along with the transmission or Transfer Case. Take off both the yoke retainers and bolts from the rear axle pinion yoke. You should refrain from hitting the yoke ears of the injection joints or inserting tools between the yoke and Universal Joint while removing them. The procedure to remove the propeller shaft requires moving it forward to separate from the rear axle pinion yoke before pulling it backward to detach from the transmission or Transfer Case. Then remove the propeller shaft from the vehicle. Look for sufficient grease coating on the splines of the Slip Yoke before installation; if needed, apply gm p/n 12345879 or equivalent grease for rwd with automatic transmission only. Drive the propeller shaft into both transmission and Transfer Case units until reference points match the removal positions and continue installing the shaft into the rear axle pinion yoke with another set of reference marks. Secure the yoke retainers by installing their bolts and torque them to 25 n.m (18 lb ft). Lower the vehicle afterward.
