u joint question

[woodside4032]

I am trying to figure out if the u joints on the driveshaft and the rear axles are same. I looked through every thread in the drivetrain section on here and on the that other site(realm). I searched the net and there are so many different part numbers. I am going to swap my rear end and figured while I have it out I might as well do some preventive maintenance by swapping the u joints at the same time. I know that I need 6 of them. Questions are, will they all be the same and what brands are recommended.

 

Thank you

Kevin

there different

look at Rockauto.com

importedcarparts.com

do some x ref on those #s

 

40$ made in USA ones are the best but I have run the Japanese GMB brand with OK results but I dont beat my car much anymore. raise it up also so not to much angle on the half shafts
