Re: Driveline part help

That's a dust cap for your seal. It should not be loose but you do need to have one. See all that crud. It keeps that crud from your seal.

Re: Driveline part help

Re: Driveline part help

the bell/flare shaped sheet metal piece is in there the right direction, just not far enough towards the U joint. It should be up against the shoulder of the yoke. Not on the pinion. It is pressed on but a few carefull taps with a small hammer and punch will do the trick.
