Measuring Two-Piece Propeller Shaft System Working Angles

Introduction
Two-piece propeller shaft Systems have 3 working angles instead of 2 working angles as in the 1-piece systems.




- The first angle is the front working angle. It is formed by the angle of the output shaft of the transmission and the angle of the front propeller shaft.
- The second angle is the middle working angle. It is formed by the angle of the front propeller shaft and the angle of the rear propeller shaft.
- The third angle is the rear working angle. The third angle is formed by the angle of the rear propeller shaft and the angle of the pinion yoke of the rear axle.
If the launch shudder or the second-order drivel me vibration is still present, measure and correct the driveline angles.
