    I'm sure this has been posted before, but... What is the correct Spicer/Dana u-joint to use in a 1973 CJ5?

    Propellor shaft joints are Spicer 153x. Dana 30 front axle u-joints are Spicer 260x.

    Axle U-Joint: 5-260X greasable u-joint
    5-760X Non-greasable -joint

    Drive shaft u-joint: 5-153X

    For axle u-joint, non greasable are stronger, i always run them, never had a failure yet.

    Uh, the 760x joint is for Dana 44 sized yokes and will not fit a stock CJ Dana 30 axle yoke. The 760x is the later forged version of the old 297x Dana 44 u-joint.
