Okay, so i'm gonna keep this short and sweet. Killed a front driveshaft, got another one and realized i threw the old one away with the straps still on it(transfer case side, not the differential side) So apparently you cannot just "get new ones" from anywhere. I even went to Jeep and they can't locate them
Went to the local JY and they dont have any.
Can anyone lend a suggestion here? Im contemplating trying to see if i can find a Ubolt that will fit the yoke off the t-case.
ORRR...if anyone has a spare set of these bad boys laying around, i'd love to take them off your hands. *Again* These are the straps(caps) that hold the ujoint of the front drive shaft off of the XCASE side.

Convert it from straps to U bolts. Here's the write up. I did it a few days ago it's pretty easy.

You can get the U bolts at most auto stores. Make sure your 5/16 drill bit is titanium. You end up with a much more secure connection.

alrighty...does anyone know where i can find the "part" that connects the front driveshaft to the t-case yoke? because my new driveshaft (out of a grand cherokee) doesn't have anything on the double cardon side, just u joints, no housing
