I found the two missing rollers from the sliding spline driveshaft!! The questions I have now are: 1. Do all the rollers lie in the same plane in the races? As the driveshaft was falling apart in my

Yes, They all lie in the same plane. The flat ends are in a row with the rounded bodies touching each other in a row, so that when the thing flexes in and out, they roll. YOu are very fortunate to ha

Joe et al. I have seen references to the little cylinders both ways, in-line and alternating. I have tried them both ways, both work. It seemed to me that there was a little less slop in the sliding

The rollers should be alternating; the yokes should be parallel to each other. Standard driveline practice. (There was only one occasion where I had to set the u-joints out of phase, and that was for

Let me see if I am reading this right. Are you saying that every other roller should be pointing in an opposite direction from its adjacent ones, or that the rows of rollers should be pointing in op

The shaft I disassembled and the picture in Haynes had (in each row) alternating horizontal/vertical rollers. i.e. each row of ten rollers had five vertical and five horizontal. As I said, Bentley's

That is what I thought you said originally. THe trouble is, I can't se how that could possible work. These things are roller bearings and having them oppose the adjoining one seems to defeat their pu

Joe, et al, The key is that height of the rollers is just slightly less than diameter. The torque is transmitted from the outer groove face to the inner (or vice versa, depends on accel or deccel) by

Bentley is completely silent on the subject -- except to say "no user serviceable parts inside" (the actual words are "NOTE: The sliding joint should not be dismantled for any reason." p. 2-404, las

Within the threaded cup that screws onto the sliding extension there should be a thin flat washer with an ID that fits over the splined piece (allows it to be installed), then a felt washer (soaked i

Thanks for the information. I didn't even think to check roller dimensions while I had them out and clean. My bigger concern was the sloppy feel in the joint. Time will tell if it is worn beyond usa

I've been following this thread, but I'm confused. Have we been talking about the "soup can" style of joint that was used on 1500's? I have a spare splined shaft, but it is very conventional and simp

There apparently were two sliding shafts used on the Spitfire/GT6 series. I have recently taken a hard look at both types and can say for sure that the earlier ones have splines while the later type

We're talking about a different version of the propshaft. The end view of the splined portions looks like a cross and ten little rollers fit into each groove. The mating female part has internal groo
