Universal Joints
 
This is a topic I haven't seen much comment on in the past. There are several types, designs and qualities available. I'm going to replace mine tomorrow and have been considering the non greasable (sealed/no zerk fitting) ones made by Spicer. that seem to be popular with the Jeep crowd. Trying to do some research without being baffled by sales hype. Opinions and preferences?????
Thanks

I've used Spicer on other cars in the past. No problems to report.
If you did use joints with zerks, make sure the zerk is installed so that when torque is applied to the driveshaft, it compresses the zerk and not pulls the zerk. I've seen them installed wrong a number of times.
