In fact, the whole drivetrain of a Justy seems to be made of rather soft stuff.

Well, it's at least made of
little stuff!
Hopefully I'll get my spacers today so I can see, finally, whether or not I can mount these stupid wheels I bought.
Oh, and here's some funny Justy trivia. I had the front of the Justy up on jackstands so I could replace a stripped stud. The stands were under both of the front jacking points on the edges of the body, right behind the rear wheel wells. I realized that the parts I needed were on the front seat, so I opened the door.
Or tried to, anyway. It seems that the car was
flexing and with the front hanging over these jackstands, the front doors didn't open and close right. I stuck my jack underneath the front subframe, lifted slowly, and I could watch the car bend back.
Yeah, so...uh...I need to put in that rollcage.
