So get this....
I have put a few posts up about my bad axle u joints that are less then 2 years old and some hollowing I was hearing...Well me and a buddy just got done putting 2 new hd u joints on and all my problems went away. But get this the old u joints that arnt that old I had a shop do cause at that time it was something I couldnt do on my own. well the shop NEVER PUT THE GREASE FITTING ON!! so my u joint had 2 freakin holes in them so of course the joints were destroyed. Think I should do something about this?

2 years ago.....there gonna tell you to pound sand now. Thats why its always best to do the work your self or at the very least double check the work if possible.
