Ed, Welcome to Trike Talk Forum BTW ! Not knowing the mileage, it might be worth getting the front joint as well. I have both on the shelf and ready to ship.

Don't know what phased is but put front half of shaft vertical and back half horizontal, does that make sense?ed

Thanks for the information and pictures the dealer I bought the trike from said they did all the service on the trike, the drive shaft was not greased or phased.its perfect now runs smooth sounds a lot better, just waiting for good weather!! Thanks again!
