Abstract

In a method of making a drive shaft assembly having a fibre reinforced plastic shaft portion 52, end fittings 11 are fabricated to include the yoke portion 12 of a universal joint 13 and an anchor portion 14. A pair of these end fittings 11 are fitted to the opposite ends of a consumable mandrel 35, and an uncured, fibre reinforced, plastic resin is applied, e.g. by winding, over the mandrel 35 and the anchor portion 14 of each end fitting 11. The fibre reinforced resin is then cured, and the resulting drive shaft assembly 10 may be dynamically balanced. <IMAGE>
