    Had my u joints replaced and it fixed the problem. Toyota wanted $2,000 for a new drive shaft I said no thanks and the local mechanic did the u joints for $200

    Yup exactly.

    FYI these are factory spicer joints with cap zerk fittings found on OEM toyota shafts with zerks

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DOI8BDS/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Price is a lil high right now, i bought the one i replaced for 24.99 awhile back when i replaced my CB and decided i should just replace the center u joint while it was almost all the way out already.

    I'm thinking you'll be ok as long as you send Toyota all documentation requested.

    I would assume they won’t honor it if it was worked on somewhere else but Maby they will
