driveshaft with replacable U joints


Recommended Posts

Like I asked in your other post, how much the DSS one piece ?

 

You can put prices here, its ok.

 

Ok I just checked your other post,

 

$625 is a big difference.

 

I'm happy with the drive shaft store I have. I think it was like $435.

 

FWIW, I haven't tried to see if the locking grease tip from https://locknlube.com/collections/locknlube-grease-coupler fits yet.

 

But it did fit on the 1986 F150 U joints to grease them.

 

Looks like the one for the auto is $476.28.

 

Is that grease tip needed for it?

No you don't need the grease tip.

 

I'm 66y/o and have always wanted a tip that would lock onto the grease fitting. Once you try to hold the normal tip on the fitting and pump the grease gun...you'll under stand.

 

I saw that LocknLube on one of those truck shows on TV.

My factory DS lasted almost 190k. That being said, my tuner recommended I get an oem driveshaft ($500-$580) because all the aftermarket ones he has installed vibrate. I am purchasing a new subaru driveshaft for piece of mind. .02

 

Hate to tell you, the OEM one I bought at 215,970 miles had to be replaced at 294,000 miles, because the rear joint was notchy. It no long moved freely.
