---- Dragster couplings (close coupled) ----
On most dragsters to connect the transmission to the differential you need only a trans
coupler (A) and a diff coupler (F).

Coupler
Clearances
The coupler must be long enough that the exterior ground surface that the seal inside
diameter rides on is completely through the bushing in the transmission tail case housing.
If it is not then it will be necessary to use four couplers and a drive shaft as show
below. In order to keep the coupler properly engaged in the differential coupler you must
have a spacer inserted in the coupler behind the transmission output shaft. This spacer
must allow approximately 1/8" of coupler movement to allow for chassis movement. The
spacer can be made of aluminum, plastic or hardwood. Often a broom handle is called into
action for this cause. The alignment of the engine centerline to the differential is
critical, as misalignment will cause premature wear on the transmission tail case bushing
and the couplers. Couplers are not designed to compensate for misalignment
but will tolerate small amounts of misalignment.
Put some
anti seize on the coupler teeth before installation.

Coupler driveshafts for solid mount
differential assemblies
On some cars where the distance is too great to make the trans coupler (A) reach
the diff coupler (F) you need to use a driveshaft and slide couplers. This also applies to
Altereds, Funny Cars and some long coupled Dragsters as well.
Funny Cars, Altereds and some dragsters you need one each from the above photo except for
the lock collars (D) and you will need two of them. Select the correct ones for your
application from the list below.

Coupler driveshaft covers for Altereds and
Funny Cars
Powerglide transmission drive shaft cover assembly.
pn 28195-79021
This 1/8" thick (3mm) cover is
designed to keep clothing from being entangled in the driveshaft that
goes thorough the drivers compartment from the transmission to the diff
gear set. By removing the four 1/4" bolts that hold the cover to the
cover mount on the rear of the Powerglide transmission the cover can
easily and quickly be removed to access the lock collars on the
driveshaft to make removing the driveshaft quick and simple. Often
clients will mount the shifter on the top of the driveshaft cover and it
is robust enough to do this it is important to note that it should be
done is such a way that it does not impair the removal of the driveshaft
cover to access the driveshaft.
