Are your's singing like mine have started to do? Otherwise, a Drive Shaft shop, or buy a new full assembly of the shaft. My local dealer says he can get the whole assembly, but it's over $500

Re: need u joints for driveshaft
Can anyone clarify whether or not these can be replaced, with a little talent????? I know the issue would be RPM balance, so I'm not forgetting that part.

Re: need u joints for driveshaft
U CAN GET THEM from advance auto. they are approx 30 bux a piece. I would not recommend doing them without a shop press. It will take you hours to get that thing out unless u cut with something. have a great day

Re: need u joints for driveshaft
From the schematic I believe there are 3 in total. 2 on the front shaft and 1 on the rear.

Re: need u joints for driveshaft
They are staked in, you can replace them but usually only once maybe twice, then you run out of metal to stake, and you replace the shaft. Try and find one in a junkyard, chances are it'll be good, that's what I did when my front U-Joint took a dump in my SVX.

Re: need u joints for driveshaft
I had a shop rebuild mine. They cut and replaced the yokes so that a universal U-joint with a grease fitting could be installed. A balance was also needed after this type of work. It ran about $300 total.

The Bearing in the middle does not use a joint on either side of it.
