ABSTRACT:
A vehicular driveshaft assembly includes a first universal joint connected to an aluminum yoke shaft having an externally splined hollow body. A first open end of an aluminum sleeve receives the splined body of the yoke shaft. Internal splines of the sleeve cooperate with the external splines of the yoke shaft body to permit axial slip between the sleeve and the yoke shaft. A second end of the sleeve is secured to a first end of a driveshaft tube. A second end of the driveshaft tube is secured to a tube yoke. The tube yoke is connected to a second universal joint.
