How Should Drive Shaft Removal Be Conducted for Manual Transmission on Dodge Challenger?

Since the propeller shaft must be difficult to remove in a manual transmission, have two people help or it could get damaged from over-twisting. Put the vehicle on a hoist and make sure it is neutral as the first step. Position index marks on both the flanges of the transmission and the axles, as well as each rubber coupler. Take out the rear exhaust system and then the retainers and heat shield. Next, remove the bolts along the shaft's front flange, then the bolts along the shaft's rear flange and finally the bolts on the center bearing. You will need aid to remove the propeller shaft assembly without damaging it. Removing the three bolts/nuts of the coupler-to-propeller shaft will allow you to work on the coupler or damper. Be sure to pay attention to the directions of the parts when disconnecting them, so that the driveline will not vibrate or be damaged when you install them again. Once more, take apart the coupler and damper from the propeller shaft, keeping note of how they were mounted.

How Can Drive Shaft Installation Prevent Damage and Ensure Proper Torque Specifications on Dodge Challenger?

The shaft should always be fitted by two workers to prevent the dangers of over-angulation which can result in shaky movement or early damage to the transfer box or gears. Put in three bolts, along with their washers and nuts and secure them with 68 Nm (50 ft. lbs.) of torque. After aligning the index marks at the axle, let your partner place the main shaft, then secure the bolt and nuts that hold the rear coupler to the axle. Later, line up the propeller shaft with the transmission flange, readjusting the index marks and put on the front coupler-to-transmission flange bolt/nuts by hand, without tightening them yet. The bolts in the center bearing can be placed loosely at this point, but you shouldn't tighten them yet. Torque the front coupler-to-transmission flange bolts, nuts and the rear coupler-to-axle flange bolts/nuts to 68 Nm (50 ft. lbs.). Always lower the back suspension to its ride height and secure it on jack stands before connecting the central bearing to the body, so you don't face noise and quick bearing wear. After finishing the suspension, tighten the center bearing-to-body bolts to 27 Nm (20 ft. lbs.). In the last step, fit both the heat shield and the rear exhaust system.
