RE: [Chrysler300] 300G Ball and Trunion Conversion

["JOHN MC ADAMS" <clafong@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bob:

 

Sean Duggan in the club already did one on his ?62 300 ?Sport?.  

http://www.crossrams.com/dshaft/trunion.html

 

I am not sure exactly which U-joint he chose to accomplish this conversion
but I can try to contact Sean for you to find out.

 

Since my ?62 300 is also a ?Sport?, I am planning on doing exactly the same
conversion.

 

 

Good Luck,

I just had my G up on the hoist to do an inspection of the trans to try to

determine wear a leak was coming from, and I noticed my rubber front ball

and trunion joint cover was toast.  I just replaced this 5 years ago and it

probably doesn't have 2500 miles on it.  I am fed up with this type of

U-joint and would like to convert it to a traditional type of joint.  I

looked on the 300 website and could not find any reference to a conversion

article as such.

 

Has anyone converted their 300 to a standard U-joint?  I suspect that it is

possible, because there is coverage of this type of conversion on the Early

Barracuda website for the '64-'65 cars, which use the same type of joint.

This may make for a good tech article.

300G convert with yet another bad rubber boot...enough already!
