Help identifying Driveshaft components
I'm working on a 71 C-10 400TH, 2WD. Full frame-off and until once done, everything is a mystery to me.
![]() ![]() Anyway, next up is the driveshaft and axles, so I'm trying to determine how to approach disassembly. Problem is, I don't know the proper names (or even "code names" yikes), which makes things a tad complex. Anyway, here are three images with 10 areas of the driveshaft, with captions. The captions are numbered, which hopefully makes things easier. Any help appreciated. Thank you. Images have been updated, thanks to board help.

3. Slip yoke 4. Tailhousing of the transmission 7. Slip yoke for the rear portion of the 2 piece driveshaft 8. Carrier bearing and housing 10. Rear axle Pinion yoke
Other numbers are correct. |

Re: Help identifying Driveshaft components
If you're working on the driveshaft it needs to be properly timed and balanced as an assembly when finished.
This style carrier bearing is the hd style and won't break if the driveshaft isn't balanced but you may feel a vibration around 70mph.
