For helping keep this great

on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 321 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 321 | i know what you're going through. i also needed to replace u-joints on my 3/4 and could not find anyone who had them.
i ended up going to a driveshaft shop to see if they could help me out. while they were checking out the u-joints they discovered that the telescoping spline on the drive shaft had signigicant play. solution? we built a new driveshaft. they did a great job, i will have no trouble finding new u-joints for it (since they used a readily available product) and it looks just like the original. driveshaft and u-joints ran about $120.00. even if you don't need the driveshaft rebuilt, i bet any good driveshaft shop could match u-joints to the existing ones.
as far as the u-joint in the ball. mine was in great shape so i did not have to do anything with that or the carrier bearing. seals/gaskets are still available at napa and some of the vintage parts suppliers. if i remember correctly, i got the seal/gasket kit from grumpy's and all the tranny gaskets from napa.
hope this helps! | | | |
