The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Driveline Universal Joint Ball

Anybody got just the threaded collar for the rear of the U-joint ball that they are willing to sell? The one I got off eBay got a little dinged up in shipping.

I don't think there is part number for just the torque tube retainer cap, not sure?

Call http://nwtparts.com/ ask for John

You probably need a Seal Kit also.

Thanks for the lead, I will check with nwtparts.

"That threaded torque tube retainer cap is also suppose to have two O ring washers."

two metal washers (one on each side of the 0-ring)

That O-ring was a squared-edges rubber seal in the kits that I have received from reproduction parts vendors.
No leaks after many years.

Clean the torque-tube until shiny where that seat sets/seats on the torque-tube
Put a little grease on the mating surface/area.
If that area is not pitted, you might not get a leak there.

I have an extra nut and may have the metal washer that goes with it if you don’t get anything from NWT.
