Uni Joints for Shifter
Hey all.
I'm chasing some uni joints for the shifter in my Baja. I've seen on Formula Vee racers that they use unis to go to the back of the car and around
the box. Does anyone know where I can get some of these?
Calling all Vee owners/builders, if you could chime in here that would be great.

Yeh, any small uni joint works there's nothing special about them.
Quit calling rust patina

Mollart joints.
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

I used a commodore steering column uni in my buggy few years back. I recall it was a real simple mod to make it fit, something like just using the
stock holden R&P coupling clamp and an additional hole drilled/tapped for the locating screw from the VW stock coupling. worked well.
