    Bad News is running again. Everything that I have done to it seems to be working. I think I need some shims for the rear axle though. My drivshaft yoke is rubbing. The bangin and vibrations send your teeth running. Doesn't somebody here make the shims?

    McRuff makes tapered steel shims to order, or at least was. Might PM him. Nickmil

    Oh I fixed it. I did some more research and searching and read Billavista's tech page twelve times. My angles are near perfect so I did not want to introduce any change there. I took the drive yoke off and one of the crosses wasn't spinning freely. I made a yoke and ujoint sandwich with 1/4 plate and smacked it with a hammer. Fixed that. I took the grinder to the rough spots and just cleaned it up. Reinstalled and test drove and no driveline vibrations were noticable.
