Front axle U-joint on it way!!

[jman]

Well, it finally happened. A front axle u-joint is starting to bind up when turning. I jacked it up today and the drivers side is definitely bad. I looked at Rock Auto and if I'm reading it right it looks like Precision 464 is the one I need. I just want to make sure these are the ones I need. If there is a better joint out there that is greasable let me know. I would rather have a greasable if it possible.



TIA

Yes, 464 is the correct one. Very easy to press in/out, owing to their small size.

I'm not doing it myself. We have a mechanic that takes care of our company vehicles at work on the side. He maintains a fleet of ambulances with 6. 0L PSD's full time so it is amazing he has any time left at all. Great guy and his hourly rate is half of a normal shop. I figure I could probably do it if I had to, but I'll let him tackle it since he has all the tools and equipment.
