[Healeys] Drive shaft alignment

[Bob Haskell]

Peter,

There are two alignment arrows.  On the propshaft I looked at, the arrow 
on the front piece was about mid-span in-line with the grease nipple. 
On the rear tube, the arrow is just after the weld.

I believe the yokes should be in the same plane.

Cheers,
Bob
