H&T and the Spicer #211229X Yoke Assembly
Permalink  
I'm looking to do the H&T on my XJ in the near future. Considering going with an XJ front driveshaft. I'm going to need the Spicer 211229X yoke, and the price from NAPA is $75.00. Are there cheaper places to buy this part? I went to Autozone's website, and found nothing. Is $75.00 the going rate for the yoke?

Also, I want to use a NEW part, not a used one. Call me picky.

Joe, no I've spent alot of time on the vib's I was getting. They were never very bad, but I have them down to almost nonexistant.  Alot of trial and error, and shimming.  I'll wait to do the H&T in the spring, you remember, when I was going to do my lift.


If you want the "old" lift I have, pay me when you can.  I don't think you'll stiff me.  It's just sitting on the garage floor now anyway.  With the trouble you've been having I'd get it aligned first.  I didn't seem to have any problems as far as alignment was concerned with the 2" lift.  Just my opinion.

Kim, NAPA no longer carries Spicer they have dropped it. However we do carry Precision u-joints and Our house brand (reboxed precision) the precision number is 627 $75.49 , the house brand part number is 2600627 it is $61.49. Hope this helps. I eventually will do the same using the house brand.


 


Here is a couple of links.

Thanks Jeff, I'll remember that. 


Someone posted in my same thread on JF, about Louisville Offroad.  They list the Spicer yoke for $44 and some change, of course there will be shipping too. 


They say they are "remodeling" their website, but I got a phone number.


I'm going to compare prices with buying the H&T, and a CV driveshaft from Jeepinoutfitters.com.  I can get both for about $381 minus the 5% JF discount.
