Re: Double cardan joint

also, I will take a video of what I am seeing and see what you guys think, I just hope thhe centering pin isnt broken, but unfortunately I wont know until I take it apart but I dont want to take it off the truck since I need the 4 wheel drive this winter if I want to go ice fishing at all (which I do). I just watched a video of someone replacing the U-joints in one and from what I am seeing, either my centering bearing is completely gone or the pin is broken. I will just have to get some prices and hope it lasts me till the end of winter, fingers crossed. if anything I might just buy a used one that I know works fine and replace the U-joints and use that, but thats equally as risky IMO.

And swamp rat, just to make sure we are talking about the same thing, here is a picture of what I am talking about so we dont get you confused on what is and isnt a CV joint,
