Default Prop Shafts and steps.

As is always the way with restoration most wear and tear is significant, and my truck is no different. The universals in the prop shafts were cactus. One had only two steel needle rollers left in the end caps. I obtained several new spiders for the worn props and pressed them in and out. About 16 hours work all up, re-packing the end caps and cleaning out the Zork grease nipples to make 100% sure that they would work.

The original Spicers were well and truly dead. I couldn't believe how good the overhaul did to make the units like new. The impossible bit was cleaining out the old hardened grease on the spline sleeves. NOT fun. they work fantastically now though.
