We had a u-joint retaining clip come out and a u-joint cap come out.
The driveshaft had been shortened, rebuilt and had been in the car for thousands of miles.
It happened on a backroad at the top of second gear. Sliding around in transmisison fluid at close to 100 mph.
It didn't come fully apart but just the one missing cap caused the tailshaft housing to break and the tailshaft to bend.
I use another driveshaft shop now...
