Drive shaft phase

[paulharvey]

I took my chevy drive shaft off with out marking it. I really knew nothing about lining the phases up before. Do I just try it one way, and if that doesn't run smooth, simply turn one yoke 180? I assume booth yokes should be pointing same direction.

Drive shaft phasing is the same as PTO shaft phasing. Correct? If so, scroll down in this link to find a diagram that shows the correct phasing: What Causes PTO Vibration?.

Ok, thanks, that picture at the bottom pretty much confirmed what I thought.
