Keep torque flowing smoothly through your driveline with the Spicer Universal Joint 5-793X, a non-greaseable U-joint that transmits power between rotating driveshaft sections while allowing for the operating angles created as the suspension and axle move. It fits a wide range of applications, including the 1958-1962 Cadillac Series 62 and Series 75 Fleetwood, 1959-1962 Buick Invicta, 1967-1968 Pontiac Firebird, 1971-1972 Chevrolet Chevelle, 1999-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500, 2003-2006 Jeep TJ and Wrangler, and 2004-2012 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list. Per the catalog it can serve multiple driveline positions, including the front and rear driveshafts at the axle, transmission, transfer case, and support bearing.
- Solid cold-formed journal cross: engineered body for better wear and overall strength.
- 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, help prevent wear, and lower the overall operating temperature.
- Kit contents: includes new self-locking bearing plate bolts and new strap kits.
As a non-greaseable design, it arrives pre-lubricated with no grease fitting to service. Spicer Life Series (SPL) joints are built to deliver longer life, increased bearing capacity, and lower maintenance costs. Signs a U-joint may need replacing include a clunk on acceleration or shifting, driveline vibration that increases with speed, or a squeaking noise — diagnose the cause before replacing.
