Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 374 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 374 | During the installation of an okie bushing yesterday, I determined I need to replace my universal joint. Does anyone have a part number for a u joint for a 1946 1/2 ton? I’ve seen u joint rebuild kits on Chevsofthe40s and Jim Carter, but, prefer a new unit. Thanks all and thanks for the Okie install advice. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2009 Posts: 5,819 Gearhead, Stovebolt Tech and Parts Tracker, Mod for Swap Meet and GTT | | Gearhead, Stovebolt Tech and Parts Tracker, Mod for Swap Meet and GTT Joined: Sep 2009 Posts: 5,819 | Big Tee - the original GM# is 606779 for the 3 speed u-joint assembly. Fits both 1940-47 1/2ton trucks with 3 speeds and 1940-48 Passenger car 3 speeds. If your set on an original NOS unit, check out this one I found after a search of the web. Considering both Jim Carter and Chev's of the 40's are showing them as "out-of-stock" this one should get you what you need. The asking price is not terribly much more than Jim Carters "repair kit". Hope this helps.

I need to find my yoke that fits into the torque tube and Okie bushing. I'm hoping it's in my shed, but I haven't seen it yet. I'll have to do a full search this week. Fingers crossed. (I have a 4-speed manual for my 1946 truck)
