Driveline Working Angles




Tools Required
- J 38460 Digital Inclinometer
- J 23498-A Drive shaft Inclinometer
- J 23498-20 Drive shaft Inclinometer Adapter
Driveline working angle does not refer to the angle of any I shaft,but to the angle that is formed by the intersection of 2 shafts.
The procedure for measuring and correcting driveline working angles depends on whether the vehicle is equipped with a propeller shaft consisting of 1 piece, 2 pieces, or 3 pieces.
In order to verify the accuracy of the adapter, inspect the angle of an accessible joint with the inclinometer prior to assigning the adapter on an inaccessible joint.
