Reply to: RE>>RE- Right Angle Drive
Regarding right angle drives, I say again I haven't really taken one apart,
but Bob Bownes says he's seen them with gears in them. I cannot ignore an
eyewitness report, so perhaps there are different types (or maybe I'm
completely wrong -- it's been known to happen). Still, I've been told the
A-H ones are repairable. I don't have one in front of me right now, but
there's a metal disk that can be removed to expose the innards, and my
sources say they use the tip of a speedo cable to repair it. Heck, pry the
disc off, look at it, and if I'm wrong buy a new one (oh, and let me know so
I won't waste any of my own time on this sort of activity).

I don't mind learning from my mistakes, but I'd prefer to learn from other's
mistakes.
