Either Stampedes or originals. The trick is to heat up the yokes before popping in the u-joints so that you don't ruin the integrity of the plastic at the yoke, I take it this is where they broke, most common anyway. Either a heat gun or dipping in boiling water will do the trick here. Then a trip to the hardware store to find brass or aluminum tubing that fits snug over the yoke, cut it down and JB Kwik weld it to the shaft, this will keep the yokes from spreading off of the u-joints in the future. Hope this helps. |
