Jeff S Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I am trying to order all the u-joints I need to replace all of them on the front/rear driveshafts and front axle on my 82 Bronco. Does anybody know the different part numbers for Spicer non-greasable u-joints? I think there are three different ones but I can't find a list anywhere.

Gary Lewis Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Let me see what I can dig up. I think the info is buried in parts lists..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Lewis Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 This is old, but it might help: https://supermotors.net/getfile/470494/thumbnail/ujointid.jpg Steve, thanks. It might help - if I could map to what I'm finding to what you show. The master parts catalog shows several "parts lists" for the D44 front axle. Jeff's axle is probably a 30.3L, M, or N. Here's an excerpt from the parts list that includes the "N". Note that for a u-joint is shows a "kit" and it is part # D3TZ 3249-A. Thank you very much, Ford, but that part number does not show anywhere else in the catalog but in parts lists. But, the plot thickens. Here's their cross-reference from Ford part #'s to industry-standard part #'s. Note that there are no D3's. And, they are all "4635", which is a u-joint, not "3249" which is a kit. So I'm trying to track down what a D3TZ 3249-A includes in the way of u-joints. And, I'm poking around the Spicer site, but all I'm finding so far is "assemblies" and not the u-joints themselves. But I think that's going to be the best way to answer the question. But, if we knew the dimensions. Wait a cotton-picking minute! I have the axles from Dad's truck laying on the bench, all powder-coated and shiny. Let me go take some measurements.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really dislike the Spicer website and on-line catalog. Man, that thing is a pain. But, if you stay with it you can ultimately get to this page for a 1982 Bronco. And, to answer the question, a Dana 44 front axle takes 1310WJ u-joints. So, now how to document this????? Oh, and if you want to know what the axles should look like: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff S Posted January 28, 2019 Author Share Posted January 28, 2019 Thanks a ton. The more I searched the more amazed i became that there was not just a simple list somewhere easy to find from ford or spicer. I did send a message to Spicer on their facebook page but just received a boilerplate reply with a link to their site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
