    Does not fit stock 93 Wrangler front wheel joints. Always inspect parts before leaving the store. Had large order and assumed I was given the correct parts.

      Square-ended caps

      from Charleston, WV

      Pros

        Cons

          Best Uses

            Comments about Brute Force Universal Joint:

            The squared ends on the caps would not clear the hole in the steering knuckle of my 78 Chevy 1/2 ton with the Corporate 10-bolt front axle. Like the other guy said I had to do some creative grinding on the opening of the steering knuckle to get the axleshaft to go into place. I would not recommend this part, as it is NOT a direct fit.

                Comments about Brute Force Universal Joint:

                my biggest issue was getting the old U Joint out. The new ones went in just fine and fit like a glove. Mine went in a 98 Jeep Cherokee.
                I bought one for the passenger side then a year later bought one for the driver side, that is how much I like them.

                  I don't know why other had issues. Perhaps they didn't research the correct part for their vehicle? Installed in the front axle of a Jeep Cherokee. Had zero issues.

                  Great product - has bushing things to keep the dirt out of the needle bearings.

                      The U-Joint does not really fit, I used this on the front axle of a 1980 GMC with straight axle Dana 44 or GM 8.5, make sure you have a grinder handy as the caps do not clear the hole in the spindle. I had to grind the edges of the caps off to get it to clear

                      There are no grease fittings

                          I am afraid that we may not be able to answer your question as the information about the origin of a product is highly confidential and this information has not been provided to us by the manufacturer as they have different warehouses in several countries.
