Thanks again guys, I put some pictures up so you could see what I am working on: http://picasaweb.google.com/michael.e.friedman/Tr6Rear?authkey=Gv1sRgCMijtNv7s6SRpgE&feat=directlink I have been driving the car with the 302 for over 14 years -- but have gone through 3 triumph rears. The pinon...

Awesome info, thanks guys! Makes pretty good sense -- thanks for saving from making a pretty good mistake. Mike

Something else to point out is that the shaft will between the CV joint and the u-joint will only be ~8". Thanks again, Mike

Very good information -- fortunately this is a rear axle so I do not need to worry about steering. Michael, how severe could the 2 per rev be -- would it be enough to destroy the u-joint? I suppose that vibration is coming from the imbalance of the yoke -- can you balance the shaft? Thanks, Mike

Does anyone know of any issues making a half shaft with a inner cv joint (which allows the shaft to change length) and a universal joint in the outer position (instead of the outer cv joint)? I have space limitations where I can't seem to fit the outer cv joint... Thanks, Mike

Pretty light, it is an idler gear, so there is no real thrust just a moment of ~133 ft lbs...I am thinking most of that will go into the radial needle bearings and very little will actually go into the thrust bearings depending on the clearances... I have attached my chicken scratch if you can...

I was looking at a thicker washer... they come .030, .060, .092, .123, and .154. To put anything thicker than the .030 will require additional machining, that is the reason I started with .030. All the other ideas are great if this was a clean sheet design, unfortunately I am stuck with the...

I am looking to use a needle bearing and a needle thrust bearing together. The needle thrust bearing will use a .032" washer on both sides. The shaft diameter is .75”, the OD of the needle bearing is 1”, the OD of the thrust bearing is 1.25”. So good portion of the washer will go unsupported...
