    Were these paint bands on my driveshaft?

    October '69 build date BB. Still has the green daub on the front also. If these concentric bands were paint, what were the colors???

    If no one else knows the colors, check with Quanta.

      I have Quantas "service bulletins" and they are no help. The bands on the shaft are 'etched' into the steel. They are definitely not caused by abrasion. The first is almost 10 inches from the rear u-joint the second is about 12 inches away.

        I think (?) that they were green and orange based on others I've seen.

          If your rings are etched into the metal, I don't see how they could be from paint . Paint should do the opposite-preserve the metal beneath it.
