If they are greasable go ahead and weld them. Let them cool down, then grease them up.

No I got the non greasable one, but if I throw a bead one the edge of the yoke it won't heat the ujoint too much and it will fill the gaps enough to keep the caps from falling out. Theoretically anyway. Thanks for leading me in the right direction guys. :-)

I cant say its the right direction, but it will get you by in a pinch. make sure you carry a spare.

That's a sweet battery box! Almost have my tranny out. Just need to get the bolts attaching it to the engine out and she is free. Also got a goody in the mail today.

I welded up my ujoint (which worked GREAT, ugly welds and all), moved my KCs up to my rack and welded my LED mounts to my bumper. My jeep is happy, now I NEED to go wheeling
