This guys Ujoint videos totally made me realize how much I do not know. I've struggled with early Ujoint failures in the past and I'm thinking poor form on my part had a lot to do with it. Some of you old gearheads may aleady know all of this. I thought I'd share for those like me who don't know how much we don't know yet.

I have Spicer books on axles and drive lines. 400 pages are just U-joint info.
Is important to look at the snap rings.
The way the go in is huge as well.

Good info here for sure.

I just got 116I miles out of the front U- joints non greaseable factory stuff.
I was amazed at this. With all the water they have been in.
