Keep torque flowing smoothly through your driveshaft with the Spicer Universal Joint 5-212X (also written 5212X), a greaseable S44-to-1330 series joint from Dana. It serves as a direct-fit replacement across a wide range of trucks, SUVs and classics — including the 1999-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 1988-1999 GMC K1500, 2003-2006 Jeep Wrangler and TJ, 2004-2012 Chevrolet Colorado, and many more. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of applications.

A universal joint links two rotating shafts and lets the driveshaft transmit torque while the operating angle changes between the transmission, transfer case, support bearing and axle. This unit is cataloged for multiple positions, including the rear driveshaft at the rear axle or transmission, the front driveshaft at the front axle or transfer case, and CV positions.

  • Greaseable design: equipped with a grease fitting for periodic lubrication.
  • S44 to 1330 series: connects a Spicer S44 series to a 1330 series.
  • Genuine OE quality: built to meet OE standards set by Dana and validated to rigorous OE specifications.
  • Dana engineered: part of a full Spicer line engineered for longer life across light-vehicle, commercial and off-highway applications.

If a worn U-joint is the cause of driveline clunk or vibration, this Spicer joint replaces it.
