What kind of u-joint do I use for aluminum driveshaft?Please help...
I have an 84 z28 with t5 tranny. What are the proper part numbers of the U-joints front and back for an aluminum driveshaft that came out of a late 80's 1le transam?Also what model car would have the same U-joint specs as my car with an aluminum driveshaft?
What type of shop does driveshaft balancing?
Thanks for your assistance.

u-joints
Hey Dude,
You're in luck, i just replaced my u-joints yesterday. It was weird. My car had an aluminum driveshaft in it from the factory, and it's an 88. I hadn't taken my shaft out yet, so when I initially bought ones for a regular old Formula, we went back and they didn't fit. What you'll need is a combination u-joint by spicer(they're pretty strong), but you can get other brands if you like. I'll get the actual part number for it if you need.

Well, I bought mine just a few months ago and discovered it had it in there already. So, I've never experienced the wobblies even at 120. Lucky me.
