I’m looking at replacing all u joints in my 97 tj. It has stock axles stock drive shaft and looking to replace all u joints in the drive shaft and axle u joints. Does anyone have the part numbers needed for the spicer replacements? I just want to make sure I get the correct ones

You need two Spicer 5-760x u-joints for the two front axle shafts and five 5-1310x Spicers for the front and rear driveshafts. Three for the front and two for the rear. Both of those u-joint models are direct replacements and are stronger and more durable than what the factory installed.

Jerry, I don’t see it listed in the chart but I would also replace the center pin bearing on the front double carden joint.
 
Any thoughts on the greaseable vs non-greaseable for the 1310Xs? Appears to be about $10 more and have a zerk fitting. Would probably stick to the basic one unless there was any significant advantage from the more complex greaseable version.
 
I prefer non greaseable for durability. Non greaseable 1310s are a lot tougher than most people think.
