[DML] angle drive snapped (I think)

["Henry" <henry@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, as our cars are likely to do... I was out fixing a couple minor things today getting ready for Spring and Summer.  I installed a battery cut-off switch from John Harvey, as well as the rubber shift plate rubber frame grommet.  I start to back up out of my garage, and heard a sharp "snap", like a twig breaking under the tires.  Well, I get about two blocks down the road and realize I have no speedometer.

Rob Grady replaced the upper and lower speedo cables a couple of years ago, but I'm pretty sure he didn't replace the angle drive (hey, Rob, if I'm wrong, let me know!).  Anyway, I'm assuming that that is the likely culprit that I heard snap today.

How hard of a job is it to replace just the angle drive?  Is there anything else I should consider while doing that job?  

Thanks,
