How to Measure a Water Truck Drive Line

Step 1. Get your tape measure ready

Like the trucks they serve, drive lines come in various shapes and sizes. You’ll need to roll up your sleeves and take a few measurements to pinpoint the perfect fit for your water truck.

For the most accurate assessment, measuring from the pump yoke’s tip to the PTO yoke’s tip is crucial. This measurement serves as your North Star, guiding you toward your water truck’s correct replacement drive line.

Step 2. Consult with Ledwell’s Experts

Armed with your precise measurement, it’s time to seek expert guidance. Contact your trusted Parts Team at Ledwell and provide them with your precise measurements to ensure you receive the correct drive line size.

Step 3. Drive Line Installation

Once your new drive line arrives, it’s time to bid farewell to the old and usher in the new. Install your replacement drive line carefully, ensuring a snug fit and proper alignment for optimal performance.

Step 4. Test Drive

With your new drive line in place, it’s time to test it. Take your water truck for a spin.

Measuring and replacing your water truck’s drive line doesn’t have to be daunting. You can confidently navigate this process of how to measure a drive line with a tape measure and a keen eye for detail.

So, go forth, measure away, and keep your water truck rolling smoothly for miles to come!
