The u-joints in the axles have to deal with larger angles and variable amounts of flexing, while the ones from trans to frame-mounted diff are almost perfectly straight all of the time. Driveshaft u-

I takes a while for the system to "prime" and fill with oil upon first startup. That's the purpose of running the oil pump with the dist shaft or turning it over without plugs until you see oil press

Another tip - put the tranny in 4th gear and rotate the output shaft a bit when you get close. That helps align the splines into the clutch disk. That's always the hardest part. Tony ** triumphs@auto
