U-joint ??

Featured Replies

I have a 89 wagon that needs 1-2 U-joints changed. I called two parts stores and neither one lists this are my only oppotions the subaru dealer or can I find U-joints somewhere else.

Thanks Steve

if you can find a junk yard, the rear half from any ea82 4wd driveshaft, including xt's will fit the same. both u-joints are on the rear half....

I have and 86 4x4 wagon parts car with the drive shaft the only thing is the 86 has an automatic tranny and the 89 has a 5sp will it still interchange.

Thanks Steve

I believe that the rear half will interchange, i don't think that the front will though.

the only thing different about the driveshaft is the front half, due to the length of their respective tranny.

 

the rear half is all the same

 

if you found a shop or the right tools to replace the u-joint itself i believe one from a certain model toyota will fit subarus. but this involves slight machining of the staked in caps
