Do I need new UJ

Post by neilbardsley »

I took the drive shaft UJ apart to clean and regrease. It wasn't moving as easy as I hoped. Seemed to be getting stuck in some positions. I found the inside of the casing had some groves in it. Time for a new UJ? What do you think?ImageImage

The 33 spline CVs are a standard size (unlike the original 25). Although I think the hole for the dowel pin is larger than the bolt holes unless it uses a stepped dowel?
