The u-joints they use in the '46 1/2 ton and the '50 1/2 ton is one serious mickey mouse design.

The joints they use in the 3/4 ton torque tube rigs seems way beefier and stronger.

Short of swapping the tranny, driveshaft, and rear end to an "open" driveline.. anybody know if any upgrades to this joint?


an idea is only stupid if you think about it rationally.
