Probably ... I just replaced all 3 u-joints on my 1950 1.5 ton and took the driveshaft into the NAPA, where they measured the cap size and overall joint size. It was a standard size.

Should be no big deal ... good luck!!

Take your old one, or the measurements, to the auto parts store. They will have them in stock.

My 52 2800 has Spicer 1350 series U-joints, I think a 3/4 ton is the same.

If given a choice between Spicer and another brand I always choose Spicer, they seem to be stronger and last longer, and don't cost much more.
