Wow, nice stuff Towcat ;Sweet

Sorry man, I looked at it closer and it's straight, but it's missing a couple of the bolt hole bungs (broke off). :mad:

If it's still kicking around, Towcat, it is definitely worth repair to me in CT. Guess I am that desperate for rot free one.

Is there a reason you guys think you need one? I have run my truck for years without one. The driveshaft is whizzing around back there with no cover.

To keep water and road salts off the clutch, throwout bearing and pilot bearing, I would assume. You can't reach up and grease them like a u-joint.

Never seem to have a problem from that. I guess the clutch spinning throws water and other junk off of it.
