RE: Trans Question

[Bill <hemirr@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

My '65 has a splined tailshaft with the front u-joint (Not B&T) bolted to it.  The yoke splines onto the tailshaft, and a bolt goes in through it into the center of the tailshaft.  This driveshaft is two piece with a rubber mounted bearing in the middle.  I'm guessing the front yoke is bolted on to stabilize that two piece driveshaft.  I haven't tried slipping a standard yoke on there to see if it works.
