I was under my wife disco tonight greasing the driveshaft for the first time. and I noticed she has 7 zerks on her front drive shaft. there are 6(two on each u joint) and one on the slip joint.. they appear to be good ujoints and I love the fact that they are double zerked. The zerks are on the body too not the caps... I am thinking about doing my front prop shaft and would love to use some like this on mine...

 

I've never seen such a thing.

 

I havent either but as long as you grease all of them at each oil change or 2 times a year, you should be fine.

 

actually it sound like a very well designed u-joint. I wonder how does make it.

 

I've never seen a 1300 series with two zerks. I'd be interested also in the mfg.
That said, one zerk is fine provided you grease them correctly.

 

Its a spicer 10 series heavy duty universal joint. (Dana) Oh yeah baby! I'm spicy....
Positioned correctly this will allow you to grease the u joint without having to rotate the drive shaft just a way to make life easier and that's what its all about.

 

Yeah it looks like they are good ones. Thanks silver i will look into those... Spicer are good right? Heavy duty seems good!

 

You have PN? The only Spicer 1300 series (what fits these Rovers) I've ever seen listed was 5-4x, which they quit making a couple of years ago.
If they've started producing another 1300 series that fits a lot of people would like to know.
