What driveshaft u-joints to use in my XJ with hp44/9" & Rock Trac t-case?
The 241 Rubicon t-case takes 1330 u-joints, my current XJ driveshaft u-joints I was using were 1310's and I don't really want to get new driveshafts for my hp44/9" swap. Is it a good idea to stay with 1310's and make the d.s. u-joint the weak link rather than busting an axle shaft? I have a 4.0L straight 6 with a auto tranny, 241 rock-trac and 5.38 gears, 4340 Yukon alloy shafts and detroit in the hp44 and 35 spline Yukon shafts, detroit, 5.43 gears in the axles in the 9". What do you guys think? Do driveshaft u-joints usually take out the entire driveshaft when they break like a axle u-joint does? I'm going to be running 37x12.50x15" MTRs.
