What is the basic year of the truck - and post us some pictures. It sounds like a pretty nicely tricked out Jeep.

dg, I am pretty sure they used the "Detroit Style" plunging joint. It is similar to the Bendix style that was used in the early front axles. The same...

True there JB. Someone has bound to know all about how it needs to go. Just share what you learn!

Junkyard Empire.... They did an MB Jeep some time back, and they did a lot of right things wrong. Mostly it's just me being persnickety, because any...

Well, I don't ever remember my Dad disassembling the axle down this far, so I doubt he ever changed these in the Jeep's lifetime. Since I would need...

Now I know why some people say you have to fill the knuckle with lube when running the U-joints. I did not know the originals were not sealed. In...

I will call them today. Thank you!!!

Got it. Thanks!!

JB it’s called Junkyard Empires!!!

jb, have you given these guy's a try? They are big in Windshields, but I think they may have some info on the sliders. ...

. Tint all around; 50% on windshield. Last I checked, windshield and back hatch glass were crack free still Working on trying to get a short...

I will surf around and try to find it. Thanks for sharing.

Maybe I could try reaching out to some people who have done the restoration?? We all One Big Family:-)

JB: I was just channel surfing and I came across a show on the MotorTrend network - Junkyard something or other. One of the main characters was...

Thank you for the pic!! Lets me know where to look on mine. I am at a total loss on sliding window gasket. My kit has one gasket and no felts or...

Yes sir it does

We like em' all Mike!

That is the original design U-Joint. It is not sealed. If it moves through its range of motion smoothly and there is NO end play side to side when...

Here is a photo of my axel u-joint. Can anyone tell me if they think this is the sealed Spicer? It feels really good and I don't see any issues...

This forum needs a “like!” button!

peeJ is hopelessly spoiled and pampered, as he should be! At least he didn't have to dress up in Christmas lights .... it will take a while to...

I can vouch for that at bmorgil’s ranch, been there and done that:cool::cool::cool:

I have that situation under control. I have a long gravel driveway, so I drive peeJ along side the drive on the nicely mowed lawn! Also keeping the...

I'm fairly confident that it is a single piece gasket, but then the felt for the sliding window goes down in the center of the seal. From what I was...

Nothing better than a winding gravel forest service roads through the mountains, or anywhere away from the rat race for that matter.

Thank you thank you. I have looked at these pics online at length. There just isn’t any detail on sliding window install, one gasket for all of this...

:D love the gravel road drives

I live on a gravel road so no nice paint for me! (That’s my excuse anyway…:rolleyes:)

Unbelievable Larry! A windshield leak turns into a repaint. Well it certainly looked good leading the show in Toledo!
