ujoint axleshaft/driveshaft

1BadTJ · 10-27-2004, 05:22 PM

I am replacing the left front ujoint tommorrow and lucky

for me the rear driveshaft ujoint closest to the diff started to come apart.
Is the Ujoint closest to the pinion on the rear driveshaft the same ujoint in the axle shafts?
I have an extra ujoint and would like to pop it in the driveshaft at the same time I'm doing the axle shaft.

TIA

Matt

the NEW axle u joints are the 760-x and the driveshaft is a 1310.

look at this page , it tells you how they switched from 297 to the new 760x.

Yeah, I got the new ujoint, 760's, but it looks like I'll be going to the parts store for the 1310. Thanks guys!

I love this forum!
