Hello,
I am needing new U joints for my truck. I do not know if mine are original at 244k miles but since my truck spent one year down at the coast, they are pretty rusty. I do not want to spend another second on the highway like I was last when when my pcm failed. I am not a huge fan of most of the auto parts brands of parts as most are cheap and fit lousy. There are some Spicer units that are considerably more expensive than the house brand joints most auto parts stores carry. Are they worth the extra expense? I wont be doing any off roading or heavy towing. Also, I see most are not sealed units. How often is one supposed to grease a u joint?
