Why don't you find a drive line shop locally and give your business to someone who gives a fuck?

 

[darw_n]

because there is nothing locally, at all

I had 6 states distributing in SLC do mine. I drove the truck in and they pulled it and had it done in 4 hours. FWIW when I went in they had 6 DII drive lines on the counter, so I asked about it and they said that the Centerville and American Fork LR dealers have them rebuild the drive lines for em. And they used spicer joints.

I've heard good things (but haven't used) Front Range Drive Line Inc. in Englewood if you're looking to go somewhere in the state.

GBR. Bought one about 3 months ago and it's working like a champ. Plus they come with zerk fittings.

just buy a harbour freight tool so you can change the u-joints yourself and then find someone local to balance it for ya. should save ya some money plus can do them in the future.

I just did one on the ground in a driveway with a hammer, c-clip remover and old socket cup... we had the harbor freight tool but it was useless... you need a vice to put it in... took maybe an hour all together..

There's absolutely nothing special about DII front propshafts.

Did you try a search on "u-joints"?

Ok, a lot of hits. Try this thread http://www.discoweb.org/forums/showthread.php?p=263762#post263762

Of course i searched and there are ton of threads explaining how the u-joints go out but I was not able to find any threads listing the exact part number for the u-joints. Thank you for directing me to the proper thread.

How much are you guys paying for these rebuilds?

 

[ddotson]

just paid $150 - only replaced the u-joints in the double cardon. Should be under $200 for all.
