SteeevO Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Calmini has a Slip Yoke Eliminator. i have seen these all over used in offroad vehicles but why would you want one? what benefits are there to having one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mookie Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 A common benefit is -you can unbolt your driveshaft from the flange at the tcase (with the sye, a flange is bolted to your tcase output shaft, and your driveshaft is now bolted onto that flange) and limp home in fwd if something should happen to your driveshaft without your gear oil spilling out. You then need to have a drive shaft that has the slip built into it. -depending on lift height, a double CV joint may be needed to help with driveline angles and a sye makes it easier to attach too rather than having the weight of the double cv and shaft resting on the tcase output shaft seal which can cause leaks. -you can use a driveshaft emergency brake kit with a sye. These are what I can think of at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
