Thanks for the help guys I tried fixing it but no success ill just let my local garage take care of it.

 

new ujoint,new,ypke ,new straps your done

 

Moved.

 

I say take a trip to the JY and grab another shaft, stop at the parts store pick up a couple u-joints and your good to go.

 

Just got my jeep back from the garage and after having both u-joints changed on the drive shaft I'm getting vibes. Any chance this is because of the new parts?

 

Check the U-joints at the hubs. I thought the vibes were from my shafts but after I replaced them I found the joints at the hubs were shot. Grab the drive shaft a turn it back and forth and see if there is movement in the joints at the hubs,

 

I'd just buy the whole damn shaft from Adams.

 

Ok I will tomorrow in the daylight and let you guys know. Also I forgot to mention I only get vibes when I take off from a dead stop.

 

Mine was doing that too and it ended up being the one at the driveshaft (connecting to the rear diff) and the 2 on the front axle. (at each front wheel)

 

I had the same problem!

Getting the broken screws is not a problem, but the rear end of the driveshaft that goes into the rear differential, got "smashed" in both sides of the yoke that holds the U-joint and can not get it out, any Ideas (For now, I have no budget to replace the driveshaft).


This is the smashed side, same on the opposite cap.

 

Borrow the Great Neck Ball and U joint press set from AutoZone. Should be able to get them out fairly easily. If you've been wailing on it make sure the ears aren't bent. Try to restore the round (maybe squash the bowed-out sides in a vise). If the caps aren't able to go in easily you might end up eating U-joints. Used shafts at the recycler aren't that expensive.

 

You should be able to fix it like Dave51 says.

If you need to get another shaft, try this if your local yards
don't have what you want. https://www.car-part.com/
