Scottie-GNZ Posted August 22, 2000 Share Posted August 22, 2000 Any driveline shop should be able to get those for you but if not, let me know and I will get them here for you. Scottie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MYRON Posted August 22, 2000 Share Posted August 22, 2000 Can the ujoints in the axles be replaced? I didnt see any "c" clips holding what was left of mine in place.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottie-GNZ Posted August 22, 2000 Share Posted August 22, 2000 This is the 2nd set of halfshafts which I had the solid u-joints installed. I just took them to the driveline shop and let them pop them in. Scottie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLKMGK Posted August 24, 2000 Share Posted August 24, 2000 Somebody PLEASE post a part # for solid U-Joints! I thought I saw it here somewhere but I've nto yet tracked it back down. I got STUPID and ordered Spicer joints from Motorsport just before the subject came up here. Not only did I pay darn near $30 apiece for the silly things but when I got them they had GREASE FITTINGS! Dang it - these are supposed ot be performance oriented U-joints and while th ecatalog didn't say specificly that they were solid I ASSumed they would be. DRAT! Now I get to send them back after waiting weeks, I hope they handle this well. In the meantime something is making crackling sounds in back and I'm suspecting a U-Joint. I now have an LSD R200 and I bought seals for it so as soon as I find a flange it'll go in and I'll swap the U-Joints too... Argh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted August 29, 2000 Share Posted August 29, 2000 I got my solid ujoint at auto zone and advanced auto. Same part number. I dont have the number, but will try to find it. Old box is in the shop. Try one of these and ask for a u joint for a 78 datsun z car. They had them in stock and they were less than $15. The are called brute force. They still live. my $25 spicer units were trashed. They are not hard to install if you have a good vice and a soft touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
