Anti-wrap idea
When checking for parts for an antiwrap I had an idea when I saw some old CJ front driveshafts laying in the barn.
What if I cut the ends off of the driveshafts and used them as a top bar of my antiwrap. The slip should essentially eliminate the need for the shackle. Check out attachment for example. Is there anything that I am missing of why this would or wouldn’t work. Just seems like one of those ideas that seem great but would have a flaw I am overlooking. The only things I could think of is being sure there is enough travel in the driveshaft and the wearing of the joint from the pressure of the axle trying to wrap Rough diagram of idea Traditional style Let me know what you think!
