(not sure what your real name is)

It's Don.

driveshaft and transmission have never been touched since I purchased this car 28 years ago

You should definitely replace all drive shaft u-joints and the center support bearing as suggested elsewhere in this thread. The front joint may be a flex disc. If so it may be okay. In my experience the original factory items wear like iron. But definitely inspect it. Others who are more familiar with the 900 please weigh in on any of this.

If both rear wheels are on cribs you won't be able to turn the driveshaft. One of them has to be free to spin.
