Where to buy Spicer U-Joints??

[CO_crawler]

cant seem to find a local source for spicer u-joints for my 98 XJ rear drive shaft. I have called everywhere nobody in kansas city (aka the ol ks Crapper) has them atleast not from what I have been able to find. What part number is it that I need? I want to do both of the ujoints on my rear driveshaft is anyone know what part number(s) and where a good place to order from is I would be grateful. Thanks!

i've had the same prob here in "nowhere, NM". even the NAPA guys looked at me like i was speakin French. kinda weird. they said they couldn't get Spicer joints. hmmmm. i ended up getting them from these guys: http://www.tellico4x4.com/index.php/cPath/2880_220_271 - you want the 1310 type for your rear d/s.

Huh, I have been working for NAPA for 11 years, no one told me we didn't carry Spicer. Just sold some last week.

I'm in Bum F*@& Maryland and the Napa's here don't carry spicer or Timken anymore.
4WD.com carrys them and tom woods, Randy's ring and pinion, or Rusty's off road are also online sources.

Look up driveshaft in your local yellowpages and call around.

1310 is the series. 153x is the part number.

None of the NAPA stores around here sell them any more. I usually get them online or through a friend in the industry.

got em from tellico, however couldnt get them in on the first try?? I jacked er up and got her on jack stands in the rear and chalked the fronts with it in neutral. Took off the rear ujoint straps and got stuck there. couldnt get it to drop down.....did I need to disconnect the rubber sleave from the tcase?? Is there some trick for this?? I have to get this done it sounds really bad!! Thanks yall!

?? is it fully compressed? It shouldn't be.. Put the transfercase in Neutral and hit it w/ a dead blow or use a screwdriver to try to compress the DS...

 

[IntrepidXJ]

found them locally at a driveline shop......see if you got one of those close by you

seems fully compressed, my rig is sagged in the rear about 1-2 inches also I didnt remove any of the caps on the rear u-joint, is that necessary too? will try throwing the tcase in neutral next go at it.
