Re: Break in Front Prop Shaft

It sounds like you're replacing it, which is extremely wise.

In the early 80s I had a '74 Cherokee with a bad Double Cardan, and being in my early 20s with more optimism and confidence than money, decided to fix it myself. It was a pain, but I got it. Or so I thought. It let loose Feb of 1984 and took out a chunk of my TH400. Not fun to lay in the slush of a freeway offramp at night in a Minnesota winter disconnecting what was left of the driveshaft so I could limp it home. I learned from that. Good luck with your replacement.
