Yes, looks like it’s there
Prop Shaft Question / Replacement / Solved
Today I did my annual maintenance on the my 2018. Changed the oil. Greased it. Then I got to pulling the clutch cover to blow out any dust and do an inspection. I noticed the front of the cover was coated in grease. I also noticed that there was a stick caught between the joint in the front prop...

**** MAN….sorry about the trouble
Someone may have over greased it, causing the fly-around.
The grease doesn't go into the boot... that's a sealed (with the rubber boot) CV joint. The grease zerk in the pic simply greases the trans out put shaft so the driveshaft can float on the out put shaft...
To the OP it looks like the clamp is on the small part of the driveshaft, but I don't see it on the large part. Maybe the big clamp broke and all you need is the clamp?

Unless the over greased from the factory I have not put any in yet. Its at the dealership now anyways had to yake it in for the steering wheel fix anyways. We will see what all they cover.
Is your boot on??? I can’t tell.
Did it just slip off? Clamp is still there
Derek,
Ummm...not sure what year your machine is...the danged recall for the steering fastener was a troll to get your machine in. Then they reprogram the ECU and give you the Misfire Detection...which
can be a real PITA!!!
Tell then to forget reprogramming the ECU!!!
The CV Joint pictured is different type. It has the internal rubber boot. My first set of CV Joint driveshafts were from CCI Driveline. Had an experience like yours. Contacted them, sent them back, replaced the CV Joints with those having the type boot we're used to. No a problem since.
