So; my wonderful Ford factory service manual assured me that the axle splines were “phased” at the stub shaft, main shaft spline section and could only be assembled with the correct u-joint alignment. Naturally; I assumed it would be a waste of time to put an alignment mark on the separate shafts. Next I promptly pulled the splines apart & started looking for the large male spline.
Imagine my surprise when I could find no large male spline, also I found that I could reassemble the shaft in ANY clock position I desired!!
Well; I assume that the u-joints on each end should be in alignment, does anyone know if this is correct? Any tips/tricks on getting the original alignment, I’d like to improve my 50/50 odds of getting it right?
Thanks,
Kirk
