Reinstalling Propeller Shafts - Advice?

[DoubleNickels]

Wrapping up re-installation of my transmission and transfer case. Curious if I need to know anything special regarding the propeller shaft bolts during re-installation? I.e. any thread locking compound, torque specifics...

Reading both the Hanes Manual and FSM, it just says to reinstall and hit the torque settings. No Loctite?

Thanks!

I've never used loctite. Just damntite. However, be aware that you need to install the driveshafts in phase. Out of phase causes vibrations. If you don't know what in phase means, just search mud, you'll find a good explanation.

Install and torque to spec appropriate for the fasteners.

NICE, this is the sort of thing I was hoping for. Hard to know what you don't know, if you follow.
