Re: Rotate drive shaft to alight spline?

No, the brakes aren’t connected. The wheels turn freely. I’m just starting to put the truck back together. I would Ike to install the running gear, wheels, before installing the engine and transmission. Every thing I read says I can’t do that because I have to attach the rear drive shaft last. I cou...

Re: Rotate drive shaft to alight spline?

I want to add to this question. The drive shaft should rotate freely with a little effort. It wouldn’t, I didn’t want to damage the spline so I installed the universal joint, also the short shaft without the outer housing, I was able to put vice grips on the shaft and with some effort was able to ge...

Re: AA Coupling Shaft Thrust Spring Replacement Available

Upon further fiddling, I attached the short shaft and used vice grips to get the driveline to revolve. It was stuck from sitting.

Re: AA Coupling Shaft Thrust Spring Replacement Available

I see now how it’s supposed to be installed. I’m still wondering why the 4808 housing can’t be installed on the front side of the cross member. Another thing I didn’t realize, the universal joint has to be bolted to the intermediate shaft. I was wondering why I had an extra 7095 retainer. I can’t ro...

Re: AA Coupling Shaft Thrust Spring Replacement Available

Am I correct that the housing rear support for the short shaft is located on the front of the cross member for stock configuration. And on the replacement it slips through the cross member from the back. https://aafords.com/aa-chassis/aa-4802-coupling-shaft/coupling-shaft-4-speed-aa/#i https://aafor...

Rotate drive shaft to alight spline?

I have my 31 AA, rear wheels off the ground and when spinning one wheel the other revolves in the opposite direction. Normal. But why doesn’t the drive shaft revolve. I haven’t removed the drive shaft from the rear end prior to this. Is this normal.

Re: What happens when a flat occurs

I think you can damage a split ring by driving on a flat tire. Only a guess. Ive installed new tires and inflated tires for my AA Stake Truck by laying them split ring down under the wheel while inflating. The last time I did it the tires had been off the truck for a long time and I wasn’t sure abou...

Re: Drive shaft housing gaskets

The gasket I'm looking for is the 4516. And by the way, thanks for all the replays and photos. I bought a gasket set from Snyder and haven't checked it yet. It has long cork strips. Hopefully they are the correct gaskets. Where can you get the felt material? Sorry for the delay answering all your po...
