Re: 2 peice driveshaft splines frozen

Why did you have the driveshaft out? Did you work on it? If you did it needs to be ballanced.

If the splines are frozen there is corrosion that will make the parts fit loose at ride height causing a vibration and kill carrier bearings.

If the slip is just full of old nasty grease you might be able to force it.

Be very carefull with heat it can melt the plastic coating on the slip stub and ruin it.
