Subject:Syncro Tranny/drive shaft indexing
From:Raul Cisneros
Date:Mon, 9 Aug 1999 17:29:41 EDT

I�m about to swap out a tranny from one Syncro to another. I have read 
mention of the need to index your drive shaft when removing it for universal 
joint repair. Indeed, on my westy when I look at the connection between the 
tranny and shaft, I see a bit of white paint on a U joint bolt and on the 
output shaft flange of the tranny. But, how do you index a different tranny 
going into a syncro with the drive shaft in place? Do you need to align 
somehow? 
TIA,
