Help! I was drivng the 4/4 to San Antonio Monday at about 6:00AM. I was
driving at about 60 MPH on I10 when the car felt as if it was going to fly
to pieces. I pulled over only thing I found was the exhaust had come lose.
I drove the car (5 mph) to the nearest exit found a shop with a lift and
got it in the air. Found the problem.
The yolk on the drive shaft coming out of the transmission and in front of
the fron U-joint has about a 3 degree bend in it. I have the interior out
and a new yolk to put in it. My problem is I can not get the drive shaft
to slide out of the transmission. My local shop that normaly works on th
Mog is backed up 6 - 8 weeks (Is this backlog a Morgan thing?) and said to
saw the old yolk off at the bach of the transmission and unbolt the tail
housing. Any other ideas would be appreciated.
