★ Reproduction to late WWII specification. Check before ordering that this is the correct version for your vehicle — early and late types are not interchangeable.
Application
Suitable for heavy 6x6 military vehicles with separate gearbox and transfer case. Check whether your vehicle has the late production version — early and late propeller shafts differ in length, flange connection or diameter. Consult your technical manual (TM) for correct identification.
Installation notes
Release the propeller shaft from both flanges (gearbox AND transfer case). Observe the correct sequence when tightening the flange bolts (cross-method, specific torque). Check the universal joints for play before assembly. Grease the grease nipples after installation.
Compatibility
NOT compatible with early-type connections. Check flange size, number of bolt holes and shaft length. If in doubt: measure the old shaft before ordering. Wrong type leads to assembly problems or damage.
Historical context
During WWII, propeller shafts were regularly modified as production progressed. Late types often had improved bearings, modified flanges or different lengths to increase production efficiency or reliability.
