Nickel Plated Slip Yoke


Recommended Posts

I am SICK of greasing that damn thing every few weeks and I want a permanent solution, but I'm not foolish enough to pay the local dealer some $500 for one. Could someone please provide the GM part number for the nickel plated slip yoke so I can order it online? Thanks.

Greasing the piss out of mine with a heavy marine grade grease I found at Autozone has kept it quiet for almost three years now...

 

When time comes to grease mine I will use Triple Guard Grease which is really thick and sticky waterproof marine grease which is used on propeller shafts in sea water.

I tried marine grease, no dice. I just had the intermediate shaft relubed for clunking, and now I'm getting a tapping noise coming from behind the dash. I'm getting pretty pissed! Nothing I can't stand more than rattling-type noises on my vehicle. I got so pissed at that dash rattle the other day I pulled over on the highway and ripped the frigging thing apart looking for it. Still avoiding me. :(

 

EDIT: Define "greasing the piss out of". All I've been doing is coating the splines with a good layer but nothing TOO crazy. Am I supposed to dump the entire 8 oz tube into there or what? I'm about at that point.

That "tapping" noise you are referring to might be the lower steering column bearing. I know ever since I got rid of the intermediate steering shaft noises I can definitely hear that lower bearing when driving over rough surfaces. There is a "fix" using a hose clamp located somewhere on this site. I have yet to try it on my truck but I think I'm just going to replace the bearing itself.

I can live with this....what really pisses me off is the constant "Groan like a dying goose" when turn at low speeds! :banghead:

This has been a problem for many years! I still have not found a definite fix. thanks GM :idiot:
