u joints/ driveshaft
[updated:LAST EDITED ON 10-Mar-02 AT 11:41 AM (EST)]U joints are about one of the easiest parts to fix and not very expensive. if you are replacing the u-joints on just one shaft you shouldnt be spending more than 30-50 buck depending on your area. Putting the in isnt that hard either, it usually consists of 4 bolts and 4 retainer clips,(2 clips and 2 bolts are on each u-joint).pull the old out and mount up the new. Let me know if you have any other questions.

People usually make the mistake of not marking them.
