Plastic coating is torn on my rear driveline’s splines. It’s made it extremely difficult for it to slide. What to do?

We run them as long as they do not have excessive side play.

I took mine apart and put in fresh grease to make sure it didn’t seize.

That blue coating is basically like teflon but heavier if it’s torn it’s because there is excessive wear in the splines
You have 2 options 1 grease or anti seize the slip joint and run it till it tears things up which might be next week or 10 years
2 replace slip joints nowmile marker 27 and Diesel Dave Thank this.
