I have a professionally restored 1934 Ford Cabriolet. I have had a great deal of difficulty keeping u-joints in this vehicle despite driving less than 600 miles total. I have bought two used inspected/checked u-joints from Little Dearborn to replace whatever was put in the car at time of restoration. Both hjave lasted less than 200 miles. There is no play in the driveshaft. The transmission was overhauled by a qualified restoration shop. What the heck else could be going on. I simply don't trust this otherwise exceptional vehicle. Thanks. Ron Pilger, Alberta, Canada
 
NOS u-joints are not that hard to find. I see them all the time at most major swap meets. Please don't trust used u-joints. Maybe someone will contact you with a NOS piece, if they do, buy it.
