Universal Joiunt Cover

[Tony G]

Hi Fellow A'ers,
On my '29 AA when I assemble the u-joint cover's to the frame cross member the inner hemispherical grease retainer has 2 holes in it 180 degrees apart. Do they need to face a certain way ?

Thanks,
TG

Due to covers bolt alignment, (the six around the outside) it can only go in one way!

Thanks Jim, I didnt even consider that.

Some are unevenly spaced and some are evenly spaced, so when looking for parts you need to make sure you buy the right parts. I always locate the two holes at 3 and 9 o'clock. Now, don't ask if that's AM or PM.
