Any half shaft for the XJ that is $60 won't be going in my ride. Besides, sometimes doing something and learning is worth more than removing and replacing...just about anyone can do that. Just my 2 cents! :) -Dutch
@@dutchmenmodsandrepairs1427 lol! I see. Well my ‘95 is a complete rust bucket with 250,000 miles on it. My left side u joint is toast but I intend to do whatever is cheapest and fastest to keep it running another year or two. One of these days my feet will go through the floorboard and it’ll be time to bury her. I can’t get myself to sell it because it’s so cheap and easy to work on.
Thanks guys .. appreciate you helping us XJ lovers get er dun. Great tips and insight on the process.

What size is your lift?
@dantheman6931 it is a 4.5" lift. Sorry it took so long to get back to you with an answer. -Dutch
I would have put anti seize on the axle spline as well. Those splines have a tendency to seize up.
Not a bad idea at all. Thank you for the feedback! -Dutch
Steering knuckle is the term you seek.
You are exactly correct! Thank you for the feedback. -Dutch
@@dutchmenmodsandrepairs1427 I only know because mine is screwed up and I need to buy one. 😂
@@jagpilotohio Good luck in getting it replaced brother! I hope it goes smooth.
Don’t they just sell entire half shaft units for $60 bucks? Why not replace the entire unit rather than screwing around rebuilding the U joints??
