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

The replacement process of the two-piece propeller shaft begins when you place the transmission into the neutral position and free the park brake if present. Raise and support the vehicle. Proper alignment of u-joints to transmission, center bearing support and rear drive axle pinion flange will be achieved by rotating propeller shafts until external clips become aligned. Marking the rear propeller shaft locations should be performed at the pinion drive flange and center bearing support and transmission unit. Start by taking off the clamps along with bolts that secure the rear propeller shaft at its pinion drive flange as well as its center bearing. You should secure each rear u-joint bearing cap using tape or rubber bands to stop the caps from separating. Remove the rear propeller shaft from the center bearing before gradually removing the bolts that hold the center bearing within the crossmember. Pull the center bearing completely from the structure. The transmitter must receive the last propeller shaft component. Begin installation by matching the reference points of the propeller shaft with the transmission then insert the propeller shaft inside the transmission. Connect the center bearing to the crossmember before installing and tightening its mounting bolts to 80 nm. To align marks on the pinion yoke to the propeller shaft marks use a tape or rubber band which you will then have to remove. Place the u-joint into the pinion yoke followed by clamps and retaining bolts installation before torquing bolts to 30 nm (22 lb ft). Confirm correct alignment using the marks on the propeller shaft and transmission pinion yoke then position the vehicle for installation.

How to Ensure Proper Installation of a Drive Shaft on Chevrolet Colorado?

The replacement of the one-piece propeller shaft starts with placing the transmission in neutral while releasing any engaged park brake. Setting the vehicle on supports allows you to mark the Drive Shaft flange against the rear Universal Joint before removing retaining bolts and clamps. Start by removing retaining bolts and clamps that lead to separation of the propeller shaft between the pinion drive flange and the transmission/transfer case. U-joint bearing caps should be wrapped by tape or rubber band to avoid separation. The u-joint opening process requires removal of tape or rubber bands before inserting the propeller shaft into the transmission/transfer case and positioning it according to the pinion flange reference marks. Secure the clamps and retaining bolts before tightening them to 20 nm (15 lb ft) tension while conducting a vehicle lowering procedure.

The Drive Shaft in Chevrolet Colorado vehicles play a very pivotal role of transmitting torque from the powerplant to the rear-drive axle as a mechanism of transmitting power to the drive wheels. Being built as a hollow tube, the Drive Shaft is optimized to reach rather high rotational speed and withstand considerable torsion; its walls are usually 0.083" to 0.095" thick. U-or CV- joints have to be strong and free from defects such as bends or cracks since this affects performance as evidenced by noise and vibration during use. Year to year different Chevrolet Colorado models have been using varied driveshaft designs, the one piece and the two piece driveshafts. It is usually composed of two parts and in some models a center support bearing is used to help control the length and position of the drive shaft. The differentials are used when necessary for meeting the vehicle layout and dynamic performance needs for strong, dependable power delivery over a range of operating conditions.
