the slip yoke goes into the rear transmission seal
The proper way to grease a slip yoke is to unbolt one end of the driveshaft. Drop it an puii the yoke apart. Coat the splines with grease and reinstall.
A slip yoke is when the end of the drive shaft in a RWD vehicle plunges in and out of [most likeley] transmission when rear suspension is flexed.
A slip yoke has a splined shaft the drive shaft slides over. This allows the drive shaft to flex on rough terrain. A flange yoke has a flat plate on the transfer case and the end of the drive shaft and they bolt together.
The rear section of the driveshaft has a slip yoke in it. This allows the rear section of the driveshaft to change length as the rear axle moves up and down. If this slip yoke binds, the change in length is absorbed by the slip yoke at the back of the transmission. Because the carrier bearing itself is fixed to the driveshaft, and the hanger that holds the bearing is fixed to the frame or cross member, when the rear slip yoke binds, it moves the entire driveshaft forward taking the carrier bearing with it, and pushing it out of the rubber in the hanger.
The slip yoke on the Ford Bronco is located on the rear axle rather than on the transfer case. This is the portion of the axle that allows it to flex.
the purpose of the slip yoke is to allow for movement over bumps and different terrain. if there was no give ,you would constantly be trashing the driveshaft or transmission
