U-Joints

closed until after the new year

 

How about a little "made it Michigan" bump? Still haven't found anything of help of my end

 

OK, finally made it to my local driveline guy. Let it be known that toyota has screwed the pooch on this one. Our front shafts take a COMMON 1310 u joint. All it took was 5mins of measurments. So do'nt let ANY auto parts store or dealer tell you they can not get you u-joints for your prop shaft. Bullshit! So, 28$ later my 4x4 is back! Hell of a lot better than 400$ for a new shaft.

 

Good info!

let it be known that a great many u-joints can be replaced with a napa or?? badged u-joint, ya just have do do some research.

Case in point: I ride a 2003 Polaris 4x4 quad, Needed u-joints for both front and rear driveshafts. Polaris dealer wanted $55 per u-joint (4 total),,did some online research and found Napa u-joints for $15 per. Same exact u-joint as Polaris. Required rollpins for the front/rear yoke was $8.50 at Polaris (per pin). Same exact 2" hardened pin at Ace Hardware,, .75¢
