blew my u-joint out

mmmm thanks for yelling guys....
I have driven it, no noise. I have driven it very very fast, and thrown a lot of torque at it even. I still worry about it and (will find a place to take it to), my rear axle is leaking a bit after the work I did anyway. I just spent a lot of money getting my 4brl put on, rocker arms cleaned and exhaust leak fixed, so am very very hesitant to spend more money. Maybe I can just get one of those safety straps to hold the shaft if the joint breaks.... I will avoid driving, but must drive it (slowly) home from a shop today. Not going to pay that shop anymore money.

The clips are in place..
the correct preload, i'm completely uncertain of. I was told to count the turns when it came off, but the nut came off quickly and unexpectedly so I could not count.
I've had people say the unjoint looks funny with that cap out that far before, but thats the way it originally was, its like that on both sides, so hopefully balanced.
bolts came with yoke, they dont look to be grade 8


oh more money for me car ... :(


F#*@ that, I'm gona drive. I'll go try and find a safety strap... I feel semi confident after what it has withstood since the operation. I will give it another look. I'll take it in when I feel I can afford, in meantime I'll try and be faithful.
