I got no stinkin u-joints (except in my driveshaft) so I'm talkin out my arse, but it seems to me that once these guys toast a u-joint, it usually takes out the shaft as well; if the ears don't rip off when the joint breaks, they're stretched out and won't hold the new joint in very well anyway. If you get to the point where you have a welded-in fancy ujoint and start breaking the actual shafts (not the ears) then it's chromo or 60 time, right?

Can we start a pool for where the Nasty breaks it's first ujoint? I'll put $5 on the rocky flat area at the start of Aggie Highway
