69 Coronet original small block car.
I’ve been chasing a driveline vibration for some time now and believe I finally found it. I replaced u joints several months ago and may have installed them incorrectly. I have the smaller 2-1/8” yoke that calls for a 7260 u joint. When I put car in neutral there is a millimeter or two of slope at the rear u joint. Just now for the first time I recognized the 7260 u joint is shorter across one section compared to the other cup to cup.
Does the shorter stretch attach to yoke or driveshaft at axle ?
Are inside or outside clips required for the rear with the u joint straps ?
How about inside or outside clips on the front and shorter cross section. Which end tranny yoke or driveshaft ?
It was several months ago when I changed them and pretty darn sure there were outside clips somewhere on the previous ones ?
