The yoke doesn’t get covered in grease, it’s just the splines. This style obviously works because all Tom Woods drive shafts and Adam’s are like this, even JE Reel drive shafts don’t have dust boots on them.
It is a simple bolt-in part. The slip yoke has the blue Teflon paint and grease to keep dirt and debris out. I’ve been using Tom woods and Adam’s driveshafts for years and I’ve never had a problem with them.
Just installed the Tom Woods one piece drive shaft and man did it make a huge difference. No more vibrations, and it helped tremendously starting from a dead stop. It has 1350 u-joints and a aluminum spacer plate to mate up to the transfer case.
I haven’t done anything too crazy under the hood:
-Roush cold air intake
-Levels Performance Intercooler
-AFE blade runner intercooler tubes
-Turbo Smart dual port BOV
-Cordova Motorsports throttle body
-NGK spark plugs from Panda Works
-UPR dual port catch can
-SPD Stainless down pipe...
The front bumper is also from Coastal Offroad. I used their center section and then made my own tube wings and the pre runner bar. It has 3x Baja Designs LP9 Pros, 6x Baja Designs Squadron Pros, and 2x squadron sports as fog lights, Warn VR EVO 10s, Factor 55 ultra hook and rope guard.
Rear bumper is from Coastal Offroad, it is their high clearance kit. I had to do a little modifications to make it fit with the wide body kit. I also installed 4 of the GenRight reverse lights. I had to cut about 8”-10” off of the sides of the bedside to make it fit.
New to the forum! I’ve got a 2019 Ford Ranger XLT that I’ve been working on for almost two years now. I’ve done all the work myself and I’ll have a build list soon!
