Review on Spicer 5-1310-1X U-Joint πŸš— Kit: High-Performance Solution for Smooth Drives by Marcus Rash

Don't add grease - replacement parts

I used two of these greases on a 2000 Jeep Cherokee rear driveshaft that I use on a mail route. I pumped some extra lube into the first one I installed and one of the white plastic caps cracked during installation. Then I read the instructions that came with the gimbal. DO NOT ADD ADDITIONAL LUBRICANT was clearly stated. Oh good. reading and learning. Also, it would be wise to hire a ball joint press to mount on the driveshaft. I used a socket and a big hammer, but I feel there must be a more forgiving way to get the job done. I did my job and I don't think the jeep will fall apart again when I hit 90 km/h. . You also get a set of three different types of clips. I don't know if I used the right ones. But they seem to fit well, so I made sure I did it right. Those are good connections. Don't oil them. Rent a ball joint press. And everything should go well. The rear drive shaft is also easily removed on the 2000 Cherokee.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Hard to tell
