ANYONE FAMILIAR WITH THE DRIVESHAFT SPRING?

[italisti]

I removed the driveshaft bolts around the "doughnut" aka GUIBO aka Flex-joint to give the engine a little more room while taking out the oil pan. right before the bearing was a spring that looked mangled up. I removed it and now it makes a perfect key-ring. But where do I find a replacement? ? <P> How important is this spring? I didn't notice a difference while it was all mangled up in there...

I think that is the tranny spring. I don't know what that is called that's deteriorated.

There should be the yoke, washer, nut, spring, seal, spacer, and snap ring.
