Hi All,

Have to replace the uni joint and wondering want is the better brands to use?
I bought some from sprint auto that were $15.75 each - not sure what kind
of quality they are. Is there any "heavy duty" ones available?

Any advice much appreciated.

Dunno where you are (maybe include a location in your profile?) but look up tailshaft balancing in the yellow pages to find your local bloke and they'll look after you.

We sell TOYO mainly
I've never seen a broken uni but I have seen some poorly made ones

For good ones go to a tailshaft shop rather than your basic auto parts store

Hardie Spicer, will cost you about $70 a pair. I believe the $17 ones are a Chinese imitation.

I had TOYO in mine, but because i didn't pump grease into them they died. I have Repco brand ones now.
