Anyone know.....
Are the transmission output shafts , ie the UJ yokes that connect the drive shafts to the T2 gearbox  used on any other cars or are they unique to the DFolts kit ?

If I remember correct, the U-joints are made for Corvette by Spicer.

I have always found it strange that one uses one U-joint. Since they accelerates and retards during one revolution, exactly as constant velocity joints don't.  :)
Usually one uses two and rotate the second 90° to cancel out the effect.
