Correct Spicer "coated cap u-joints"
I've known about these for quite some time but I had never seen actual documentation confirming the coating so I never passed on the information. Didn't need laughed out of town because of the expense either.
The 1310 joint (drive-shaft) isn't ridiculously priced and is a 5-3613X, the 1350 joint (half-shaft) is yet another story and is a 5-3615X. The Spicer/Dana TSB dated Oct 2013: http://www2.dana.com/pdf/JOI-PNI-242.pdf The earlier part numbers most were familiar with were moved to Spicer obsolescence years ago. This chart references those older numbers also: http://www2.dana.com/pdf/J3262-4-DAG.pdf |

Re: Correct Spicer "coated cap u-joints"
Nobody really stocks those so I went with the regular ones. I can't recall if I used a light touch of anti-sieze or not (maybe on another car), but they fit well and I don't lose any sleep at night worrying that I wouldn't be able to remove them. Then again, the climate is pretty dry so probably not an issue here anyhow.

Re: Correct Spicer "coated cap u-joints"
Good info there Dave...
When I ever get around to checking the U's (they're good now), I'll Parkerize the caps with Zinc-Phosphate like I do my guns. Should take me about :30, if I take my time...
