The front ball & trunion u-joint on my 65 Valiant is starting to make some constant clicking noise. Have never worked on this type. Any tips for removal and installation would be greatly appreciated=P~.

Thanks

I have several driveshafts for your car that are in good condition,If you can measure from flange to center of rear u joint I will make sure they are the right length. Curtis ("WAGGIN")

They are pretty hard to find parts for, but you can have this conversion done for a couple hundred and be done with it.

That conversion was done to my parts car.
Maybe this pic will help with the trunion breakdown, and there is a guy who usually has them on ebay for around $125 for the kit.

Thanks for the info. Great diagram. Think I will stay with the ball & trunion and just rebuild it.
