    1953 Ford Jubilee - Locked Up

    OK, I found a big part of the balance and height problems. Drive shaft is seized up and does not telescope in and out freely. It is not bent. Is this something I can fix, do you think, or will I need to replace the drive shaft?

    James, the picture you posted illustrates it very clearly now. So helpful, the way you annotate and draw the red lines/boxes. I now have all the information I need to get her tuned up. I will post the results here. Thanks a bunch.

    Is the part circled in red (photo attached) the part that I need to replace with something shorter? I can't find where the parts in the rectangle box (including Key 21) are on the rake. Thanks.
