help with universal joint
Hello,
I need to replace the universal joint in my 79 rx7 and I was wondering how difficult it is. I bought a factory manual and there are only about two pages and it says I have to check the balance of the driveshaft and instal a turning holder to keep the lubricant from leaking out. What is a turning holder? and what can I use in place of it? and usualy when the universal joint is bad does the driveshaft go bad too? any help would be greatly apreciated. thanks in advance |
turning holder? Dont have a clue on that one! (may keep oil from leaking out of the tranny?)
Some driveshafts have C clips on the inside of the U joint cups (this kind is replaceable), outhers have 4 or 5 stamp marks on the outside of the U joint cups,(this kind is not, witch= new driveline) if you look on the outside of the driveshaft and the U joint holes are smooth than your ok. if you see markes your screwed! ask a local driveline shop thay will know. Hope this helps! |
