have a vibration problem after the track. so switch rims and tires back to stock but still there. so i pull the driveshaft and check u-joints. the back u-joint is binding a little and front is fine. hopefully a ujoint fixes it

All they should need is to look at it and get the number, does it have the dana joints in it already?I usually drop mine off and go back and get it!Heck they can sell me the dana's and install them for me cheap so I just let them do it some times for a few cars other I put them in myself no biggie!

yes it does have dana spicer joints in it now. its a lingenfilter 3.5 ds. im wondering if they used heavy duty joints or not. i found a local parts store that has some dana spicers but not heavy duty. are they that much better or should i just replace with the same ones already in it. i was thinking off calling lpe to find out the part #'s or see if they use a specail joint.well i was going to install at work but if i can get a place to do it for me i might just do that if it doesnt cost alot.

thanks for your help
