Re: Dutch '59 Fleetside Longbed
Kees, all your fab work is looking great! project coming right along nice.
As for Nut Case question - on the driveline angles I think he was referring to?, you should have at least 1-3 degrees of angle (up or down) between the trans and rear diff. What this does is allows the needle bearing inside the u-joint cups to spin as the driveline rotates and keeps them active and rounded.
If your driveline is perfectly straight, (no degree difference) then these needle bearings do not turn and can cause flattening of the bearings and a shorter life cycle.
