Tech Note 1: Forged Method Most U-Joint crosses are forged by one of two methods, either hot-forged or cold-forged. Cold-forged crosses are harder and more resistant to wear, but the process is costly compared to hot-forging. For certain applications, such as rear driveshaft u-joints on diesel trucks, the increased wear resistance of a cold-forged cross is very important. These Joints also have very effective o-ring type seals protected by a plastic deflector. The cold-forged cross, excellent seals, and high quality grease means this cold-forged u-joint should easily outlast any greaseable hot-forged universal joint on the market by a considerable margin. For a lower cost, hot-forged u-joint suitable for gas powered trucks, see QU40789.
Tech Note 2: External Snap Ring D471290 is an external snap ring type universal joint made to Spicer 1410 series specifications. The u-joint cup diameter is 1-3/16". The overall width is 4-3/16". This universal joint will not properly fit late model Dodge and General Motors driveshafts made for the AAM 1415 series universal joint which has a 0.010" shorter overall width.
Tech Note 3: 4x4 Tech Publications More universal joints and driveshaft yokes are wrecked by slam-bang methods of u-joint replacement than by any other cause. Refer to TM3000 Driveshaft and Universal Joint Manual or TSB3502 External Snap Ring Single-Cardan U-Joint Service.
