Can someone point me to a link for replacing rear driveshaft u joints? THANKS

To make this tech, I have a clunking, Im pretty sure it the u joints. What does everyone think.

describe the clunking more.

as for the ujoints. use the socket method which basacally means get a socket that is smaller then the coller of the ujoint and hit it with a hammer to get the ujoint out. either that or get a ujoint press but i used the socket method and it worked fine for me.

Well, its a ka-thunk when I shift gears, I have up-down play in both rear DS u joints. Im gonna grease up the slip yoke while im down there.

U joints is one of those things ive never done, so Im kinda confused.

Well, I like grease. I mean even if something doesnt need it, I grease it. Anythings better with a little grease

Oh, and after reading that write up I think I have a pretty good grasp on it.

Anyone know the part numbers for both DS u joints??

THANKS

autozone, napa, or whereever you go will know the part numbers. I dont know them but they knew the ones for my front DS. The people at our local autozone arent as stupid as others i hear about.
