Does anybody know if the drive shaft u-joints are replaceable? As in there not staked in but have snap rings holding them in place. Allowing for easy removal to replace.
Cheers, If I remember correctly when I did the center support bearing seeing stakes around the trunnion cups of the U-joints. Perhaps it’s time to replace the whole unite with easily serviceable parts.If the DS was changed over the years it could be circlipped already. My 635 had a remanufactured DS with removable joints, If they are staked you can get rid of the 'Staking with a dermal tool.There was an article somewhere about grooving them yourself . Maybe Google has the answer to that
E9 has staked U joints, so i guess
E3 as well.
Oh how I whished they were snap ringed....
Setting them at a correct depth is tricky.
