72 Blazer U joints / cross question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**D.PASSMORE** · 09-18-2009, 11:06 AM

I have to rebuild my D44 front axle, leaking seal on PASS side/axle tube. I have a few questions:

1) Who sells a sturdy, complete kit - seals and bearings for a 72 D44?

2) Any good advice before starting.

3) Does any one have any part numbers for the U-Joints/crosses in the axles and the part numbers for drivshaft u joints / Front and rear?

Trying to avoid stopping and starting due to incorrect parts or knowledge base. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Be careful with the wheel U-joints. They switched to a different size sometime in 72.
