Re: NEED Hood Safety Latch!

Re: Easier/cheaper way to fix a collapsed DOD/AFM lifter
If I remember correctly, the first design had more problems with the lifter internals hanging up. Pretty sure the Caprices use a second design/different manufacturer.

The caps are staked in. You might find a driveshaft shop that can do something with it, but it won’t be inexpensive like an old school u-joint.
