Transmit torque smoothly through changing driveline angles with the Spicer Universal Joint 5-789X (also written 5789X), a non-greaseable 7260 Series u-joint from Dana Spicer. It connects driveshaft sections and lets the driveline flex as the suspension moves. Cataloged as a direct-fit replacement for a broad range of classic Mopar and AMC applications, including the 1960-1976 Dodge Dart, 1990-1993 Chrysler New Yorker, 1964-1974 Plymouth Barracuda, 1970-1974 Dodge Challenger and 1968-1975 Plymouth Road Runner — 259 applications in total, so see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

  • Solid cold-formed journal cross — engineered for better wear and overall strength.
  • Heat-treated bearing cups — precision-ground and case-hardened for durability.
  • Multi-lip seal — keeps grease in and contaminants out for maximum retention across a wide range of environments.
  • Thrust washers — eliminate metal-to-metal contact to help reduce wear and lower the overall operating temperature.

As a non-greaseable design, it has no grease fitting to service; the sealed grease is retained by the multi-lip seal. If a worn or failing original u-joint is behind your driveline clunk or vibration, this replaces it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Spicer 5-789X?

It's a non-greaseable 7260 Series universal joint that transmits torque between driveshaft sections while allowing the driveline to flex through changing angles.

Is this universal joint greaseable?

No—it's a non-greaseable design with no grease fitting. A multi-lip seal keeps the sealed grease in and contaminants out, so there's nothing to lubricate during service.

What are signs my universal joint may need replacing?

Common signs include a clunk on acceleration or deceleration, driveline vibration that grows with speed, and squeaking. Diagnose the cause before replacing.

Does it fit my vehicle?

It's listed for 259 classic Mopar and AMC applications, such as the 1960-1976 Dodge Dart and 1990-1993 Chrysler New Yorker. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact year, make and model.

What makes this u-joint durable?

It uses a solid cold-formed journal cross for strength, heat-treated bearing cups that are precision-ground and case-hardened, and thrust washers that reduce metal-to-metal contact and operating temperature.
