Information On Solid U-joints For Driveshafts


Recommended Posts

For those that are interested, I checked with the driveline shop I use and this is what they gave me.

 

Neapco, part # 1-0029BF

 

They are about $15 and if you have the skill you can install yourself. My shop charges $8 per halfshaft (2 joints). To date, they are proving to be very strong units.

The stock Z driveshaft (transmission to diff) u-joints are absolutely tiny in comparison, if my memory serves. (Anyone that has a stock motor in a Z, I have a new pair of these, I believe they are from Nissan. If you want them, I will sell $25 with shipping for the pair.) I think anything more than an anemic V8 would bust those things into shreads easily.

 

I also have a new Spicer halfshaft u-joint X-1505? , the same one that Motorsport sells as heavy duty. That's for sale also, It would probably be o.k. for a mild motor, but people here say that they break them with healthy amounts of torque. I paid $36 +shipping, will ship to you for $20.
