urdrwho Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I haven't replaced a U joint since 1979. Back then you knocked them or pressed them out and pressed them back into place. My new to me 97 Outback limited is in need of a U joint replacment. The dealer says no go, you must buy our very expensive drive shaft. So JC Whitney has the joints and so does a place called Rockford Driveline. Even if I replace all the joints it is still cheaper than the dealers new drive shaft. Question is about the term stacked? Is this just a name for what we used to have in the 1970's, the kind that you removed the outer keeper and banged out the joint. I don't have the press and my neighbor will be doing this job. Is there anything to know, any secrets to the job? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
