Well I have been picking at my 41 2dr and discovered that the front leather U joint cover is only partly on, a plastic wire tie had been used to secure it! There is a groove on the driveshaft to recieve a radiator hose style clamp but its too narrow. AH I have driveshafts from my 56 wagon and 38 pickup (both converted to modern U joints and shaft). Maybe theres something I can salvage. Yee HaH. several skinny little clamps. And one with dimples on it that grip into the leather. Worked fine. If I dont sell the car I will repack the U joints this winter. moral- save EVERYTHING! Build another garage if U have to! L. |
