Spicer U-joints
I wonder if the 5-627x spicer is the right u-joint for my halfshafts..
I just found out that automatic and stick cars have different u-joints...
Is the 5-627x for automatic or stick????
:cheers:

What year are your half-shafts? ... Auto or Man HS's?

Re: Spicer U-joints (GrandSportC3)
I actually ordered them already... I hope that I orderd correctly... I assume that those are 1350 series U-joints...

Re: Spicer U-joints (GrandSportC3)

I just accessed an OLDER pdf file I'd downloaded from Dana site ... it shows current kit # for 1350 series is kit # 5-627X ... however ... it also lists a NEW # kit for 1350 is shown as SPL30-1X

I just looked at newest info (pdf) it no longer shows 5-627X for 1350 ... it now shows only the SPL30-1X for 1350 ... ask your napa guy to check that.
