The drive shafts looked worst than they turned out to be – quite a surprise for a stag. The Universal Joints are all strong although I have noticed that a couple have been welded in! I’ll have to grind them out when they come to need replacing.
Both the inner and outer drive shafts were pitted with rust but it was only surface rust which was cleaned up with a wire brush before re-painting with a couple of coats of Hammerite. The hub bearings were also remarkably smooth and quiet so I haven’t touched them either. Just a couple of new gaiters.
