Front driveshaft U joints
Pulled a front D shaft from the JY the other week to run in the rear. Ordering my SYE on Summit Racing right now and wanting to throw some U joints in the cart while I'm at free shipping. What are you guys replacing with for the most strength and ease of installation? When I changed my axle U joints I went with the Spicer 760 with the thicker cross and nongreasable. Thanks for your input!

You can use the Spicer 5-1310-1X greaseable with the
grease fitting in the end of the cap if you are in the water much.
The 5-1310-X non-greaseable are stronger, though.
Also, check your driveshaft to see if it has a greaseable (93 and
earlier, I think) or non-greaseable centering yoke. The
denny's driveshaft site has information about those.
