Default Hey Scorp

Do you have a photo documentary of the drive shaft u-joints like you do the half shaft joints? :D

No. :sad:

Once you get the driveshaft out though you take them out and press them in identically. If I hadn't just put new ones in my driveshaft I'd do one. Getting the torque beam in and out is the toughest part.

There's always a tough part.... :(

I'm due for brake pads and all 6 u-joints this winter. Too many little clunks from the drive line to keep ignoring them.

When I go to do that, I am going to upgrade the U joints, halfshafts, driveshaft, etc. So when I go to build my motor up, nothing is gonna break, hopefully :D
