[AMC-List] torqu tube Q???

["johnny kazek" <johnnykazek@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, this is Johnny, the guy J. Johnson so kindly reposted the torque tube 
question for.    Sorry I didn't find you guys earlier, thanks so much for 
the wealth of information.

If I could give just a little more info, when shifting into R or L, there's 
a little bump, like it wants to move but it just won't.   Transmission fluid 
is full now, but it wasn't when I got vehicle a few weeks ago.    Fairly 
certain the emergency break is not on.   Took a winch to get it onto trailer 
and 3 guys pushing it off into parking space when unloading, but it did roll 
albeit reluctantly.   Of course brake pedal goes to floor, bleeders for 
brakes are broken off, will have to completely rebuild (lines too), but they 
don't seem to be frozen.    Car has about 60k which I believe to be correct 
due to documentation.

I will check first thing for the sheared hub.   Have a feeling I'm not going 
to be that lucky.   If that's not it then I guess I need to find out what's 
going on under/behind that torque tube, unless anyone has any other ideas 
and I understand your suggestions correctly.   Thanks especially for info on 
springs, wasn't sure if I needed to compress them or not.

Engine runs great on this thing, could be a fun wagon if I can get this 
sorted out.   Will post results as they come.  Thank you very much for all 
your help and patience.

--  Johnny
