Figuring since it was you, I knew there had to be something else there other than the jack. That's why the picture struck me the way it did.

Yeah, it's right next to the jack.

It's hiding behind the plastic sheeting.

Just got done with the first u-joint.

These things are a MUCH tighter fit than the OEM's.

Pure beef, these things are.
