    Unknown driveshaft yoke

    Okay. As I was trying to find out the source of vibration, I twisted the head off a U joint bolt in the rear yoke. It has a dual cadron driveshaft of an unknown manufacture. My question is, what size yoke and U-joint do I need to get? Is there anyway I can determine the size of the U-joint...

    Hi y'all, first time post here and long time lurker, I purchased a real beat up '97 Jeep from the local takuaches last May and I have been fixing it ever since. I've been looking to eliminate vibrations that happen when getting on the freeway starting at 55mph. I recently removed the rear...

    Looks like I need a new front driveshaft

    Tore down the double cardan joint on my front driveshaft to rebuild it. Unfortunately it looks like I need a new driveshaft… The shaft is badly worn. You can easily feel all of the visible marks. The centering yoke has a small amount of play in the ball and socket joint. The retaining ring...

    Squeaking noise after off-roading

    I got some snow in the local mountains a few days back and I took my 99 2.5 up to play around in. It's a pretty mellow dirt road but there were a few puddles and some dust at the bottom where it was dry. When i hit the pavement i started hearing a squeaking noise which i had a good bit of...

    Still can't remove rear driveshaft differential yoke

    Hi, longtime reader and first time poster here. I'm replacing the pinion seal of the Dana 35 rear differential on my 2003 Wrangler X, and I've already removed the 4 bolts on the driveshaft, but it won't budge from there. I've read several threads about it already, and I've tried spraying it...

    Clicking Diagnosis: U-joint or Axle?

    After a cross country move a month back my automatic '04 6-cylinder started clicking from the front(at one point during the trip, I was traveling on a bumpy forest road and the vehicle simply stopped moving forward on its own. I was in 4WD at the time. I immediately turned off the vehicle and...

    How often should I grease centering ball in front driveshaft?

What's the consensus on how often to grease it? Saw one post saying that 3k miles is the norm, but it would...

    U-Joint Strap Bolts Stripped

    Any recommendations on how best to remove stripped bolts on the u-joint strap? It's too tight to fit a socket or drill out, I'm thinking I may need to weld something on, but these bolts are kind of small to do that. These are on my front driveshaft, I just pulled the t-case to install an SYE and...

    Do I need a SYE for a 03 Rubicon?

    I purchased a 2003 Rubicon with about 4.5" of lift installed. From what I can tell it looks like a stock rear driveshaft. The driveshaft looks like it is at a very steep angle. So in general I know that once you hit 4" of lift it is usually best to install a slip yoke eliminator. Of course the...
