ferret Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I have done a number of these on different vehicles with mixed success. YES you can replace the joint, but be certain you can center each side within the yoke or you will have a vibration problem. And most driveshaft repair places will not balance a staked in driveshaft.So don't be surprised by your results. Cheaper and more labor instensive, especially the transmission end, than just replacing the entire driveshaft, but I have had a few of them end in vibration, and those I finally replaced the entire driveshaft to resolve.

presslab Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I've replaced my staked in joints too. After I had a touch of vibration so I carefully measured and re-centered the cups and it's fine now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
