I did it over 20 years ago. I know that I replaced all of the ujoints
including the half shaft ujoints. It also was a 72 with the A type overdrive.
Maybe it came out the front or was made easier with the half shafts removed.
But I do remember collapsing the driveshaft to get it out. I do not remember
any problems to get it out. Maybe the a type overdrive made the difference. I
was thinking about this since I've read the e-mail responses from others. I'll
have to jack it up and crawl under it and have a good look.
