RJS OP master Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 6,224 JERSEY	I was ready to order U-Joints but have a question. 72 Satellite 400HP (p code) auto 3.23 8 3/4rear. It's a 7290 type u-joint with straps and bolts. I looked them up and all the measurements posted are 2 5/8 od??? I measure my tailshaft yoke and it's 3 1/4od but 2 5/8 ID. Are all these books printed wrong or what am I missing here? I wanted to order the last one on the list Moog #248 Thanks Ron Close Save My Place Print Send these listings to a friend Filter These Part Listings Choose for Me to Minimize Cost 1972 PLYMOUTH SATELLITE 6.6L 400cid V8 : Drivetrain : Universal Joint Price NEAPCO Part # 21175BF PREMIUM - REAR SHAFT ALL POSITIONS w/1.126" BEARING CUPS; Base Model Engine VIN M [Wholesaler Closeout -- 30 Day Warranty] Part Image $2.99 O'REILLY/MASTER PRO Part # P317 Rear Joint; OPTIONAL KIT - 4ISR> 1.078" BRG OD; Base Model Engine VIN M Front Joint; OPTIONAL KIT - 4ISR> 1.078" BRG OD; Base Model Engine VIN M [Wholesaler Closeout - Private Label Pkg. - 30 Day Warranty] (Only 1 Remaining) $3.03 PDQ (PROVEN DRIVELINE QUALITY) Part # 16301 STD - REAR SHAFT ALL POSITIONS w/1.078" BEARING CUPS; Base Model Engine VIN M [Wholesaler Closeout -- 30 Day Warranty] Part Image $3.03 PDQ (PROVEN DRIVELINE QUALITY) Part # 16300 w/FLUSH TYPE LUBE FITTING IN END OF BEARING CAP w/2.125" YOKES; Base Model Engine VIN M [Wholesaler Closeout -- 30 Day Warranty] Previous ImagePart ImageNext Image $3.03 GMB Part # 2101306 Rear Shaft All Joints; Grade Standard; Lubrication Type Grease Fitting in Cross; 1.078" Bearing Cap Diameter (Only 12 Remaining) Part Image $4.04 GMB Part # 2101309 Rear Shaft All Joints; Grade Standard; Lubrication Type Grease Fitting in Cross; 1.125" Bearing Cap Diameter Part Image $4.04 GMB Part # 2111306 Rear Shaft All Joints; Grade Standard; Lubrication Type Grease Fitting in Bearing Cap; 1.078" Bearing Cap Diameter Part Image $4.92 NEAPCO Part # 16301BF PREMIUM - REAR SHAFT ALL POSITIONS w/1.078" BEARING CUPS; Base Model Engine VIN M [Wholesaler Closeout -- 30 Day Warranty] Part Image $7.35 ACDELCO Part # 45U0117 {#89029299} Professional At Transmission; w/2-1/8" O.D.

After installation move the front yoke thru both planes of travel and the rear ujoint thru its 1 plane of travel & it MUST be free/smooth. If not set the shaft horizontle on your bench with the yoke out just off the edge & whack the "ears" with a BFH several times as needed till it IS free. the ears are the flat connector pieces of metal (2) between the shaft itself and the cap holes. best is to have a helper hold the shaft & you whack em with a brass drift/hammer. hit one ear several times then rotate the other up to 12 0'clock & hit it then see if it is free. repeat within reason as needed. Ahead of time on the installation I would suggest driving the caps in with a hammer/drift as opposed to using a big vice. Hammerwork is my last choice but my preference on this deal. EDIT I believe that is a misprint as that IS ID not OD cuz you are measuring across on the inside & I dont think I've ever seen a spec for yoke OD (& therefore the ujoint to fit that specific yoke) cuz it ain't needed (at least in a Mopar 7260/7290 app).

Unless they are trying to say the od of the joint itself where it would meet the caps. Thanks for the info. just wanted to make certain. Ron
