Re: U Joint info
Seth, I have had a number of those. I am 99% certain they are early production after-market units.

Re: U Joint info

Re: U Joint info
Seth, I never did use one as I had a good stock of NOS Ford units.
Your friend that said they were junk... did he say why he thought that?

Re: U Joint info
I'll put if for sale on the Model A swap and see what happens.....one man's junk might be another man's treasure.

Re: U Joint info
If it is still fairly tight (and not crusty inside) some model A person may want it for originality.
