The Begining
This car was bought, some years ago, from Gullwing Motors in New York. It was an older restoration at that time, as far as I can ascertain. The car was found in a barn in north Florida ten or more years ago and went through two avid Morgan owners, being dismantled by the second one and then passed on to me. Much work had been done including a new chassis as well as quite a collection of new parts. Here is what I bought.

PROPSHAFT INSTALLED
I installed the shaft and gearbox yesterday. I used this bicycle inner tube to go over the input gear and a sleeve glued to the propshaft. This was a perfect fit. The RTV got smoothed out more before it was bolted up.
The forward end of the spline should protrude beyond the bell housing face 1 3/8" + 1/16", - 1/8". This gives you a 1/16" clearance. From Nev Lear's latest book. Fred
Hello
ReplyDeleteHow did you check the play on the prop shaft at the clutch?
