Fabric/rubberized U-Joint Discs

Finally got the last one done.  The castle nut stripped and started spinning in place, but found one at Home Depot that fit perfectly and got the cotter pin in.  This was more of a pain than working with the demountable rims!

Hi

Well done - so you got the new ones fitted?

Cheers

I recently replaced the disks in my car.  I still have the old set that were installed in the mid 70's.  They measure about 3/8 inch thick, so three would be 9/8 or 1&1/8 inch.  They compress with buckle washers, so even with the washers installed the three in the rear are just over one inch thick.

With the buckle washers installed with the older discs, it took forever to get them back in.  I would have to use longer bolts to fit the new ones in.
