What U-Joints for al. ds.

coreyflipp · February 25th, 2009, 07:06 PM

I need to replace the U Joints on my frpp aluminum driveshaft and was wondering what 1330 is? I told the guys at the parts store I needed some 1330 U joints and they didn't know what I was talking about. I know the guys and they are knowledgable and have been in business for a while so I know I'm not dealing with the retards at some some parts houses. Somebody enlighten me.

Anybody?

What U joints for aluminum driveshaft.

This may be it.
Dennys Driveshafts > 1330 Series...FORD REAR U-Joint...Greaseable

"Please note: We do not sell universal joints based on year, make and model. Too many mistakes are made this way because too many vehicles are modified. Instead we sell them based on actual dimensions so that you get the right u-joint when you receive it. To order you must measure how wide your u-joint is in both directions and the bearing cap diameters of all 4 caps. This must be done at each end of your driveshaft."

In other words since you have an aluminum driveshaft an OE replacement might not fit properly.

heavy duty ones, they are about 40 bucks but you probably wont find yourself replacing them again

non greasable are a little stronger since they arent drilled for a grease fitting.
