UJ's ... again !!!

by "Paul - xxx" <notcheckedever@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jul 8, 2008 at 03:42 PM

Bloody feckin' useless lumps of feckin' cheesy steel.  Rear (front
prop) UJ has gone again.  I think I've replaced them all now in a year.
Bought a pair of UJ's just in case one was much older than the other
and will replace as a pair ... but ...

Anyone got a clue why they would go frequently?  

When i replace them I pack more grease in, make sure the grease nipple
is in properly _and works_ and regularly clean and grease them, esp.
after wading/muddy off-roading.  I always tighten them correctly and
check they're still tight a hundred or so miles later, and again after
every wading/mud session.

I am of the opinion that maybe the propshaft might be bent, twisted or
otherwise fecked, would anyone agree with this or have any other ideas?
At a quick glance it doesn't appear to be ... could the yokes go out of
line?

Cheers ... ;)
