[Spridgets] 5 speed question

[Patrick Elliott]

Mike and others, never heard of the electrical tape trick?  Wrap the forward
end of the assembled drive shaft U-joint tightly with electrical tape,
enough to make it very stiff. Now you can install the Transmission and
engine without the long floppy drive shaft attached.   You can stick the
drive shaft into the transmission from under the car, through the tunnel.
After one circle around the block, you can remove the now balled up
electrical tape off the rear end of the drive line.
