First and second splined members are manufactured for use in a slip joint by initially providing a first member having a first plurality of splines thereon and a second member having a second plurality of splines thereon. The second plurality of splines defines a shape. A coating of a material, such as a low friction material, is provided on the first plurality of splines of the first member. The shape of the second plurality of splines on the second splined member is next measured, such as by using a digital spline gauge. The, the shape of the coating of the material provided on the first plurality of splines of the first member is conformed in accordance with the measured shape of the second plurality of splines of the second member, such as by using a lathe. As a result, a precise spacing or gap between the splined portions of the first and second members can be achieved that minimizes the amount of backlash and broken back therebetween.
