Greetings and Happy New Year to all.
I'm contemplating the next round of work on my 1939 41C. I've cut the torque tube and fit a Gearvendors overdrive into it. Now I have to pull everything apart again and have the two driveshafts balanced. As I go back together, I have to align the rear of the transmission and the torque ball. I also have to get the shimming on the torque ball just right. I think it is set up a little too tight right now.
Is there anyone out there who is experienced with the torque tube setup? I'd really like to speak with you.
In addition, does anyone know if the inner driveshaft will simply pull out of the rear differential? The shop manual diagram doesn't really tell me.
Thanks in advance. Jim
