Jeep eats U joints
« on: 09/ 5/09 - 06:48PM »
My rear drive shaft is eating up the front u-joint.  What could be causing this?

You could either have a bent driveshaft (should notice vibes), or to steep of an angle.  Are you putting serviceable joints in it?  How are they coming apart?

They are wearing down and looking like a tube of lipstick.  I do have a little vibration and it gets worse as the u-joint wears out.
