I have it separated at the transmission and the torgue tube is dropped below the transmission, so there is clearence for the torque tube to slide towards the front of the truck.
If I remove all the nuts around the pumpkin, does the torque tube & enclosed drive shaft come out as a complete assembly?

My objective is to make the removal of the rearend easier. I'll fall back on just disconnecting rear shackles and rolling the whole rearend and torque tube out the back of the truck.
Thanks Again | | |
