mfg Posted October 18, 2017 Report Posted October 18, 2017 Mechanically speaking, where in the Studebaker Avanti driveline did Studebaker make use of a considerable amount of cardboard?

64studeavanti Posted October 21, 2017 Report Posted October 21, 2017 Can any one elaborate on where and how the cardboard was used? Enquiring minds want to know.
arkus Posted October 21, 2017 Report Posted October 21, 2017 it was used by manufacturers to reduce hi-speed noise and vibration. quite common!
64studeavanti Posted October 21, 2017 Report Posted October 21, 2017 So, the cardboard is inside the tube?

Yep, it sure is....I was surprised at that myself last week when I sliced open a rusty '62 GT Hawk driveshaft and found it hugging the inside of the tube......Frankly, it looked like an oversize toilet paper spindle!!
