Need new UJs for a '79 K10, but confused what driveshafts I've got

<< < (3/3)

English:
aha, so has it been changed? No wonder I'm getting confused!

Yeah it's a 1/2 ton

Irish_Alley:
i dont think theres any real way to tell.

JohnnyPopper:
English,

If your budget can allow, you should change all the UJ while you have it apart.

Also, check the spline yoke for excessive play, and clean it up.

If it's tight, lube it up good. When they wear, they vibrate at high speed.

Finally, check the carrier bearing for smooth rotation without chatter. If it's bad, that should be an off the shelf item.

English:
Okay cool. Think my best bet is to take the UJs out and measure them, and order replacements that way.

Thanks a lot for all your help!
