I need to remove my front driveshaft so I can have a driveline shop rebuild
it for me; needs some new universal joints. I have looked in the Hayne's
Maunal briefly and it appears that I need to remove some self tapping bolts
which hold the front u-joint clamps on(I think a total of 4 for the front
u-joints), and then the same with the rear u-joint bolts/clamps at the
transfer case(4 again, maybe)......but it that it? I assume spraying the
bolts with some penetrant will help to loosen the 120,000 mile old bolts
also, right? Also, I should be able to drive my Dak without the front
driveshaft, maybe??? Thanks,
Kyle
