RE: IML: 1962 Drive shaft



I just bought universal joints for my '60 from NAPA, they had them in stock.  However be sure you get the proper number of them.  The chart my NAPA guy had showed the Imperials having a one piece drive shaft.  It had been twenty years since I last changed U-joints on my '62 so I thought maybe my memory was wrong.  Turns out I was right, so I have to go back for one more set.

Hola Jennifer

Since the two piece drive-shaft was used in several years I will address this 
to all.

Before you remove the unit from the car place a long section of tape on the 
front and rear sections of the center.  What you are doing is making it easy to 
align the splines when you put it back together and want to keep the balance 
the same.

The center rubber section I got from our famed supplier just So. of the bay 
area.  His name is:  Lowell G. Howe @ 1-209-892-3464 .  He will require your 
old piece so be nice to it.  The Univ Joints are from the NAPA down the street.
