twopiece, I need to kow asap, so i can fix it
Why does my '76 GMC Sierra C-1500 have a two piece rear driveshaft ? Do the trucks with two piece shaft use the 6" tail tranny(TH350), or use the 9" tail truck tranny ? ? Can I replace the two piece with a one-piece shaft from a 78 C-10 with the same tranny, wheel base, and axle as the C-1500 ? The 76 C-1500 two piece shaft broke at the rear yoke, so.... I appreciate anything ! ------------------ -'77 Electra 403/TH350 -'76 GMC C-1500 Sierra Classic 350ci/TH350 -'68 C-10 chassis -'72 K-5 chassis Note: Looking for an S-10, Nova, Malibu, Monza, or similar for sale for around $1200 5652 posts 5-10-01 http://communities.msn.com/RandyR72K5 Randy Lincoln, IL "life's gonna leave me in the dust, if I don't try and catch up to it soon" r72k5@hotmail.com [This message has been edited by Fast68Chevy (edited 05-12-2001).] [This message has been edited by Fast68Chevy (edited 05-12-2001).] |

Randy, it has something to do with the factory load capacity. Yes you can replace it with a one piece after removing the bearing support.My LWB one piecer has a 9" tail . the two piecers are much more forgiving to heavy loads and balance problems.DAVE
