Universal Joints
I just bought some Brute Force Performance U-Joints from Advance Auto Parts. Just wondering if anybody has used these and what do you think about them.

i have had friends who used those joints. both good and bad comments about them. the good comments were that they acted like u joints should. the bad comments i heard is that a few friends said they felt ****ty once put on. just not as smooth as they should. people have always told me to use NAPA u joints over advanced when every possible.

well no. im not saying they are terrible. put them in, and before you install the drive shaft back in the jeep, or where ever. Just feel it out. rotate and feel the joints. not all of my friends said they werent good. one of the friends installed them, didnt like them and went and returned them after they were installed. he just told them they were **** and they allowed a return. but you still might have luck with them.
