We also have the center support bearings in stock. (D)0.944" / 24mm(L)2.913" / 74mmType1 High quality, heavy duty part. Slightly different to OEM as they now only have a dimple instead of a hole right through the universal joint for increased strength. No snap rings as these are staked universal joints. Staked or crimped universal joints do not have snap rings. They are held in place by staking or crimping the lip of the yokes overto hold the universal joint cup in place. Also known as the “non- repairable” or “non-rebuildable” universal joints. You would need a staking tool set and access to a press in order to secure these joints in place.

Type of U-Joint Common Series Slip Yokes Splines Center Bearings Flanges Weld Tube Yokes Step 1Establish what style of Universal Joint you are working with. This is important, since u-joints have a different way of measuring depending on the style of u-joint that you have. The way that you measure the u-joint will translate into how you measure the other components you may need. ALWAYS use a set of Vernier Calipers or Micrometers, tape measures will never produce accurate results! These are mechanical parts and require precision After comparing the Type of U-Joint in Step 1) Measure your u-joint in the correct manner and identify what series you haveOutside Snap Rings *Inside Snap Rings **Outside+Inside Snap Rings *** SPRTAB Style **** Bearing Plate *****Light & Medium Vehicles Outside Snap Rings *Inside Snap Rings **Outside+Inside Snap Rings *** SPRTAB Style **** Bearing Plate *****Commercial Vehicles There are two applications for slip yokes that determines what type of slip yoke you needTransmission slip yokes that slide onto the output shaft of your transmissionDriveshaft slip yokes that allow for the shaft to move in and out during operationPlease follow the stepsEstablish the type of universal jointMeasure and determine the series of your universal jointDetermine if you need a transmission or driveshaft slip yoke typeCount the splines and take note for missing splines.
