1929 Oakland universal joint

Recommended Posts

I hunted/searched for a "Mechanics Universal Joint" for my Pontiac for fourty years. Finally I took my driveshaft in to a shop and had them cut the old joints out and install regular Spicer Joints. Not original but smooth quiet and easy to repair/replace. I wanted to have my original trunions bored out and bushed but the machine shop said the material was too hard to work with. Changing the joints was simpler.

I wish you luck in your search but just thought I would suggest an alternative.

Thanks guys. I can rebuild mine but just didn't want to do it right now. I was really hoping to find one and put it in and be done, then I could rebuild mine whenever I could get to it. From the sounds of it I need to back my ears and go ahead and rebuild mine and my spares. Tinindian, I never got any manual page copies from you. Not sure where we aren't connecting! Thanks again for all the help guys, I will keep looking while I'm putting off doing mine!
