I did get two napa u joints ,dont have part numbers in front of me
for some reason they only had C clips on one side on the joints
I will see if I could mix the two sets up to make it work
just woundering if I am missing something
C clips on the driveshaft side but not on the pinoin side and the cups whould not hold ,and fall out

ford yoke has tabs on the side , to hold the cups in , on the pinion ?
I bought a used chunk one time that had a yoke that had tabs on it to hold the caps on,somebody told it was prob a Ford. I know the Mopar joint I had wouldn't work. Had to change it out. I don't know for sure that it was Ford.
