In the truck world, you see that a lot. The problem is they are a bit weaker because the manufacturers make them as servicable units (greasable), so they are hollow inside and therefore weaker than a solid joint. Sadly enough I have one on my BB ranger from a 1310 joint to a 1330 joint. Talk to a driveshaft shop and I'm sure they can get you fixed right up. johndickjr 09-20-2009, 06:07 PM Yes, you just need to know what joint you have to what you are going to.

Hopefully, you will have similar luck. Having dimensions when you walk in allows you to check them before you walk out the door.
