Universal Joint Installation
1) Using a 3/4” wooden dowel rod, mock
up the steering shaft to obtain the correct
shaft lengths and u-joint angle.
2) Once the correct shaft lengths are
obtained, install shafts and u-joints
snugging down each set screw so that it
leaves a mark in the shaft.
Dimple
3) Remove the shafts and using a 1/4” drill
bit, dimple each mark left by the set
screws.
4) Re-install the shafts and u-joints using
a red thread locker on the set screw
threads. Tighten each set screw to
25 ft. lbs. and then tighten all jam nuts
securely.
** We recommend that you regularly inspect the
u-joint set screws for tightness.**
