u-joint girdles
Anyone know if anyone makes a u-joint girdle for a 1330 series joint. (1980 half shafts on an auto trans)? I don't mind breaking u-joints, I can replace the shaft beyween rounds, but shearing off the bolts in the yoke is a downer.
Thanks for any help. JamieJ

There are some aftermarket companies that make these. It's a somewhat standard item and shouldn't be too hard to find in Summit, Jeg's or your local performance shop. I'm not sure about the sizes though.

Moroso only makes girdles for 1350 series joints. Since I can't find any that fit 1330's, I'll just drill the straps and hubs for 5/16 bolts. This will get rid of the puny 1/4 bolts and threads. Thanks for the response. JamieJ
