teknomage Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 I have been going through the drive train of my turbo diesel 1977 280z 2+2 getting the clunks out. I have rebuilt the half shafts, and I am now stuck at the driveline. The rear U joint is worn and loose and while I already have it out I would like to replace that one or both of the U joints in the driveline. However the parts houses have provided me the wrong U joints and further research has indicated that this 77 uses a stacked U joint that is difficult to replace? It may be possible to get a specialty driveline shop to change out the stacked U joint (I got a quote of $90 per u joint locally)? Is there a older stock 2+2 driveline with the replaceable U joints? would it bolt in? Has anyone been able to source these stacked U joints to do their own replacements? Also dose any one out there have a spare R200 differential with 3.36 gears? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
