Common Problems It Can Help Address

• Binding or rough movement in the drive shaft joint
• Excessive play in Cadillac Commercial Chassis driveline service points
• Noise from a deteriorated U-joint in front, center, or rear shaft positions

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the shaft configuration before installation, since the listed Cadillac Commercial Chassis applications use either a 3 joint shaft or a 2 joint shaft depending on year and position. Confirm bearing cap style and bearing type match the original joint before pressing the new unit into place. Inspect the yokes, shaft surfaces, and retaining areas for wear or damage during service.
