Is the skinny late model driveshaft made that way because the HP was down, thanks to the environmental freaks? Is it as strong as the whopping 90 HP driveshafts? Larry

Fellow Spitfire Listers, The driveshaft on my '72 Spitfire is the 'strap' type, and some of the straps are broken. They are approx. 3" long, 3/4" wide, .035-.040" thick, and made from spring steel, a

I don't know of any reason you can't fabricate them if you have at least one good one to use as a pattern. However, with that said, if you can find a shaft with a slider joint on one end, that is a

Because in order to take it off and put it back on again, all you have to do is remove the flange, not both the flange bolts and the bolts that hold the straps on. As you probably already know, the s

In my opinion, it is also a more durable arrangement. Trying to put that much torque through those tiny straps, which are flexing (fully reversed cycles) with every rotation of the driveshaft sounds

i think you are a little misguided, joe. i have the strap type on my car and i've also had the driveshaft out more than twice without undoing more than 8 bolts (4 at the gearbox, and 4 at the diff).

Well, all I have to say is, "If you can do it that way, you're a better man that I am." My drive shaft was wedged in there so tightly that without removing the straps, it would not budge. Joe P.S. I

i believe the straps offer a little tension and allow a little movement between the diff and the end of the gearbox. it seems like it would be a little easier to produce than a splined shaft. and may

on the other end of the straps there is a splined shaft, this allows the strap fixture to flex in and out. I removed mine and cleaned it real well so if it did need to flex it will. I wouldn't make o

Then you wouldn't want a Herald or earlier Vitesse/Sports 6. Most of these cars had a giant drain pipe of a driveshaft, solid as a rock (ok, it really isn't solid, but hollow) save for the u-joints t

Hi John, When I got mine balanced, I asked the Trans. people the same question. They say they prefer the front, since it is better protected than at the rear, against dust and dirt etc. Peter 73 Spit
