Can anyone confirm if this is correct part number for a Rubicon front u-joint?

Guys, can anyone confirm if this is correct part number for '03 Rubi front U-joint, non-greasable,

Spicer 5-793X U-Joint Kit 1330/S44 Series (OSR)​

Thanks

Yes. I just replaced mine (04 Rubicon) when I rebuilt my driveshaft. 5-793x is the correct, non-greasable part number connecting the factory driveshaft to the front diff yoke.

I got mine from Denny's along with the rebuild kit.

Thanks PRNDL, this helps. I rebuilt the CV previously using Denny's kit as you are, now this joint's got some play.

I'm not sure if all factory rubicon driveshafts are like this but I was surprised to learn that the u-joint is held in place by a nylon injection from the factory: https://wranglertjforum.com/threads...ssue-what-am-i-missing-here.44356/post-749434

Using a torch on the DS yoke ears causes the nylon to squirt out. The replacement u-joint is held in place by inner c clips.

You can see the pictures of my experience with it here: https://wranglertjforum.com/threads/prndls-green-one.55717/page-9#post-1185779

You might already know all this, but it was definitely news to me a few weeks ago.
