eventually had to buy a whole truck just for that part.

They are LAYRUB joints . I think we discussed them a little previously . They were used in various industrial applications ( Lister dump trucks) and a few trucks used them as well - Commers in the 1950's . They come in different sizes .

I think they are still available but not sure where. I obtained two in good enough shape to use. The Morris wireless vans had them for the drive to the generator . And I think the WW2 Humber 4X4 has them between the gearbox and transfer box ?
