Title: 53K driveshaft
Post by: dpledger on November 10, 2013, 11:05:42 PM

Some time ago I disassembled the driveshaft for my '53. Putting it back together now, I seem to have lost track of which end went on which end (Xmission or differential.) It appears that the tube is completely symmetric and that it shouldn't matter which end goes where, or at least I can't see anything to distinguish. Is this a correct assumption? Thanx.

This one, of course, has a balance weight on each end....
