Lovejoy Upgrade

I just got my new Lovejoy coupler parts in the mail today.

I upgraded to the L-099 size components and the coveted BLUE spider!



I now have all the bits and pieces I need to rebuild the motor to transmission coupler!




The next step is to find when I have some time to go use somebody's lathe to get the old motor spline out of the old motor half of the coupler, hollow out both new coupler halfs, and weld in the fun splined bits.



I'm really busy with work and other responsabilities through the rest of the year.

To put the car back together might be my Christmas project!
