Guess the u-joint was bad

I started getting the shudder and clunking after a clutch dump a couple weeks ago. Trying to teach my gf stick prolly didnt help much either.







Had a little helper come along. Tonight was so humid that the camera lense fogged up immediately after bringing it outside.





Gonna have the shaft balanced and whatnot cause I didnt mark at all how I took it out, and I didnt either last time I had it off.
