Want this question answered?
Universal joints are always under constant pressure and stress from the movement of the drive shaft and vibrations caused by its rotation. It is important therefore to tighten the bolts securely, applying between 70 to 80 foot pounds of force on the torque wrench.
is the torque increased decreased or constant
It could posibly be a bad transmission mount or a universal joint on the drive shaft or even maybe loose torque converter bolts
Ratchet with appropriate deep socket and a universal-joint for the back bolts. Then add a long entension (6"+) behind the universal-joint for the front. There's a small clearance at the top lip of the drawer on each side to access the nuts.
Remove the bolts that hold the drive shaft on to the universal joint on each end.
No, they usually have something called a CV (constant velocity) joint which is sort of same, same but different.
On front engine/rear wheel drive cars there is always a universal joint on the drive shaft. If your looking to buy one, you could check with your dealer's parts department. They either will have one, or can order you one.
To get to the hard to reach bolts, you will need an extension, preferably with a wobble end. A universal joint on the wobble end should give you the ability to remove the bolts.
no
this link is for front wheel joint but maybe you can find something therehttp://www.pavementsucks.com/tech/hub.php
a universal joint holder.
The first universal joint was created by Londoner Robert Hooke, a scientist of the 17th century.
