On Saturday I went to OldTown.
I was the last one there, thats why you dont see any cars behind me.
Met my cousins husband Paul - another certified car nut.
It was a good time, there were a couple hundred cars, and we participated in the parade of cars where all the cars in the show start up and cruise the streets of old town. The streets are lined off with 100's of people watching the cars.
This was the first real highway trip I had done in the car, and there were major vibrations!
I discussed with a few buddies and we all agreed the cheapest thing to do first was balance the drive shaft. So out it came.
My friend Mike dropped it off at Advanced Driveline. Their initial inspection showed at least one bad universal joint, and a dent in the tube, which to them looked like a torque twist. Who knew I was making power like that LOL! We decided to replace the universals and see if it would balance. It would not. So a new tube was in order.
I met Mike, and picked up the completed drive shaft, I sanded, primed, and gave it a nice coat of semi gloss black.
I was very excited to install it.. and what a difference!
Its like night and day! Its like a new car!
