Need Double Cardan joint repair kit part #

Does anybody have a good part number for a Double Cardan joint repair kit? I am seeing them for everything BUT 67-72 Chevy trucks. Would like to get it through Advance Auto if I can, but will try anything at this point. Mine is stock 72 Blazer front end. Hate to put this back together without freshening it up. Thanks, Mike

If you're talking a np205 front output double cardan, the two u-joints are just regular 1310's and I found a new yoke with the centering ball and bearing on Rockauto.com Part # PE607, from Precision. Napa might also have those. PE280 from Precision are the u-joints. 1310 series.

neapco numbers 70081 greaseable 70081ng non greaseable center kit. Make sure the weld yoke is in perfect condition and have the shaft ballanced. Coming from someone that rebuilds these every day it's really easy to mess this up. If it's not perfect when it's done it won't last a month. I'd deffenetly reccomend taking it to "the guy".

I wouldn't put anything precision makes in my neighbors lawnmower much less something I own.

Re: Need Double Cardan joint repair kit part #

Thanks guys will see what I can find from this info. I can get Neapco through my company, so I will try that first. Any tricks on doing the u joints? Seems like you have to do all 4 cups at the same time. I had ZERO needles left in the back joint, or I probably wouldnt have touched it. Guess I will just take it slow. Driving around like a 2wd at this point. Thanks again.
