Subarian Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Not supposed to be replaceable, but you can replace them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idosubaru Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 they are designed to be replaceable, but they are with a little work. and once you do it, you have replaceable and regreasable joints. i did it a couple years go and posted a picture of the process/instructions included with the ujoint. the file is too large to post here, so check it out at this link: http://www.xt6.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5179&highlight=joint resize it and post here if you'd like, these nasa computers won't allow it. next time i do this i'm having a shop build a one piece driveshaft so it uses only 2 ujoints instead of 4. prices are kind of steep, i think they were 30 or 40 a piece off the top of my head. if you find better prices, let me know. use a sawz-all to get the old ujoint out. anything else can be time consuming.
