Non replaceable staked in u-joints

Specialty "STAKED-IN" Universal Joints...


For over thirty years automakers have decreased assembly time and cut production cost by crimping universal joints into driveline assemblies. According to the manufacturer the joints are "STAKED-IN" and non-replaceable.

Rockford offers expanded replacement-joint coverage designed specifically for these varied applications.
  • Rockford 430-9
    • Fits:
    • 1971-1985 Datsun B120 Truck
    • 1971-1973 Datsun B110
    • 1974-1978 Datsun B210 (210)
    • 1979-1982 Datsun B310
    • 1989-1994 Subaru Justy
  • 0.791 inch Bearing diameter
  • 1.285 inch Inside Lockup [yoke inside width]

Inspection

Classic Symptoms:

  • Vibration at high road speeds
  • "Clunk" sound when backing up

Remove the Propeller Shaft from the diff (you can leave it in the transmission to prevent transmission fluid from leaking). Flex the u-joints by hand. It should:

  • Move smoothly (not stiff)
  • Be tight

Replace if loose or binding.


Replacement Procedure

Use a press.
