Thanks guys, this makes alot of sense. The alignment on the front half of the propshaft is out. This is what causes the rubber
donut to get hot after a long drive. This heat makes the rubber soft and causes severe shudder on acceleration.

The solution will be to lower rear end of gearbox until propshaft is parallel to crankshaft. Will also have a look to see if engine
can be lowered by altering mountings.

Thanks,
Rishal

Nice to see you spray painting yourself.
Not an easy job I imagine. Takes years of practice to get that right.

Well done!

An enthusiast of many nice photos and few words.

Well done Rishal for getting it all back together and nice to see it on show there.

So how does it run?

Hi Rishal

please do some words to go with the photos, tell the story, add interest.

Just take time on that would you?
