if Bucks don't play a role try the CTM joints.

CTM's are the way to go, i've seen evidence that a dana 44 with all ctm U's was stronger or = to a dana 60. found or ordered from most parts stores.

Thanks for the info guys. I've got a vibration so I figure I'll just upgrade while I'm down there.

ctms are just axle joints....and they are not designed for much road use cause they have brass bushings instead of needle bearings so they wear out much faster,,,,thats why the design wont work for drive shafts

spicer life series is hands down the strongest d-shaft joint..although its non greasable

if you want greasable go with the spicer too

they make some of the life series joints in a greasable joint
