2003 Rubicon U-Joint Front Drive Shaft
Trying to replace the u-joint between the pinion yoke and the driveshaft.
The driveshaft yoke does not have spring clips, and it appears that the
end-caps were pressed on. After some investigation, the end-caps are held
in place by injected nylon.
I used a torch to heat the yoke, then drove out the old u-joint.
The problem is, I can't find the right replacement joint. The yoke has a
groove for spring clips.
Has anyone swapped one of these? I am thinking I should just get a new yoke
that will take a 1310 u-joint.
