(top post)

It slides apart...with a little effort.

well..... maybe sometimes a lot of effort.

Hello, how does the driveshaft separate to change the carrier bearing on a 2001 Chevy 2500 4x4?

thx, D. ========== ==========

Well, I'm having a hard time deciphering your technical jargon. Why don't we just start with, "which driveshaft are you talking about"? Front, rear...etc. I suspect that you are talking about the front driveshaft. In that case, the driveshaft just slides off the splines of the front output shaft on the transfer case.

=A0=A0I haven't looked under the boot yet near the center yokes - not sure if it is a slip jo Well, I'm having a hard time deciphering your technical jargon.

Maybe....but I've rarely seen a 4X4 Chevy truck with a two piece rear driveshaft. It would have to be a 4 door cab with the full size box to get a two piece. If it was 2 wheel drive, yes, a lot of them have two piece driveshafts.
