Hi
Does anyone have some guidelines, on when to run a 1-piece/straight propshaft, versus when to use a 2-piece propshaft, a propshaft making use of a centre-bearing/carrier-bearing?
Is there limitations in length, or speed, or angle, or applied torque? What are they?
Perhaps pros and cons of each?
Regards

I haven't got measurements, but when I fitted the propshaft to the Ford, I was told it is at maximum length for the strength of the steel used.
