Driveshaft Double Cardan "H" joint damaged beyond use?
I took the time to dismantle the driveshaft today... Rented a U press from O'reilly's and it came apart pretty easily.
Noticed after giving all the parts a good cleaning some serious wear on the U joint sleeves on the double cardan... see pics.
The 2 close up pics are of two different sleeves...opposite one another on the cardan and would be holding the same U Joint. I bought this shaft as a rebuilt a couple years ago to replace my original shaft. Now I assume that this U joint probably failed and caused this damage?...was rebuilt and sold to me?
Is this a little too much wear to use the joint?
