Thanks for a fantastic video. From start to finish you made it seem like an idiot like me can do this. You deserve a KZbin Emmy.

[@waltmcmahan4716]

Great video as always , thanks Chuck

[@DavidParker-cf2km]

At 12:14, pay attention to which way the grease (zerk) fitting is facing. Make sure you can get a grease gun on it after it's installed.

[@Poweraddicts]

That is very true! Thanks for leaving a great tech tip to help others!

[@williamwilde9867]

Bookmarked for future repairs

[@Poweraddicts]

Great! Hope it helps!! Thanks and have a great day!

[@curtisalm]

Appreciate the video. Just ordered the centering yoke kit. Gonna tackle this next weekend.

[@Poweraddicts]

Hope the video helps. Good luck!!

[@tarzan30809]

Thanks for the video! Rebuilding a 1974 J10 that needs that work done.

[@Poweraddicts]

I like J10s!! You are welcome. Hope the video helps

Good video, and good for trail repair. Double Cardan is like a rubixcube for me, good point about few ujoints have grease when they're replaced. Even the cheapest U joints do ok for me if I keep them greased. I started using non greasable dana on stuff I can't service/grease and I think they last the longest. Dana greasable for the win, when I can afford it though.

[@Poweraddicts]

Yea .. those Double Cardans are kinda confusing to rebuild. Hop the video helped!!

[@stevenclark2232]

I used a mini sledge, just lost my whole thumbnail.... Great info. My execution was not on par.

[@Poweraddicts]

Dude!!! Been there done that!! I even had blood pouring out of my finger from under the nail. It was just barely hanging on so I went ahead and ripped it off to get it over with. Glad you enjoyed the info. Have a great day!

[@dirtbikingcanada]

I like to put extra grease in the caps to help hold the needle bearings in place. Good video thanks.

[@Poweraddicts]

It really does help!

[@rickbucky4358]

👍👍

[@Poweraddicts]

Glad you enjoyed it!!

[@jlathem56]

I have a 06 Rubicon that needs this done too. Is there any reason I can't drive a week or so without the front drive shaft installed while I order parts and rebuild it? {UPDATE, nevermind you sort of answered it in the video}

[@danphoenix6569]

where can i buy that rubber seal at 18:20 ?? i cant find it anywhere

[@banshanllyngdoh277]

Any issues if the centering pin of the centering yoke is removed? How does the centering yoke assist in movements?

[@jayxtreme6]

It's crucial to the "CV" functioning as it's supposed to because it keeps the 2 U-Joints at the same angle.

[@johnsims5330]

At no point did you go to a bench, or walk into a shop with the prop shaft. I swear you coulda touched the Jeep the whole time you made the repair. I'm willing to bet a fresh Krispy Kreme you've done that on the trail before. on top of a rock. possibly using a different, smaller rock. with a tire iron. :) good work!

[@Poweraddicts]

I've changed ujoints laying in the middle of a field, parking lots, and even on the side of the road in the middle of a big rain. I'm no stranger to driving broke junk! LOL 😀👍

[@dannyboym424]

Are the 3 u joints all the same part numbers? Rock auto and autozone have conflicting data

[@sparkie5571]

did you ever find out which part number was for the other u-joint on the other side?
