Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

I did not weigh the new driveshaft. You know how it is when you get a new part you got to put it on. But on the box it said shipping weight 18 lbs. so a ruff guess minus the box and the packing material and the lift test lol. I would say the new drive shaft weighs around 15-16 lbs. I am really impressed with it.

I don't know, I think it needs a little mud on it to look better.
Could be just me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
