I'm not sure what the current brand of u joint is that is in my truck at the moment since I've never serviced them... but I was told about a year ago when I got an alignment that they were starting to become a bit loose.
@ White Trash... If what you say is true that is interesting but I'm not looking to end up having to get a bunch of custom machining work done. I'd be happier with an off the shelf item that doesn't need to be reworked but would provide better turning radius for when I'm in 4x4 for most of the winter. Besides with the RCV Performance's "you break it we replace it" warranty I would think that would cover the CV joints if they ever fail though I guess I'd have to confirm that so I'm not totally sure.
On another note my truck definitely has ball joints and as was noted previously I believe anything '92 or newer came from the factory with ball joints. If my ball joints ever fail though I've been thinking that I would seriously consider the
Dynatrac ProSteer Ball Joints they are expensive but they are also made in the USA and built from chromoly steel. Additionally I've heard that they are designed to be rebuildable with basic hand tools while in place on the vehicle and that the rebuild kits will be cheaper than the cost of new ball joints. In any case that's just my $0.02
