Rears are the same, front is different. I'm a fan of Dana U joints.

Dana Spicer Life Series, I went with non-greasable when I changed the rears on the 07. #51350X 1350 series

Same as what FWC&D uses in their heavy duty drive shafts.

Thanks Doc, will remember that.
Doc , a special reason for using non-greasables? Always thought they're better, like, i only have greasables on my 1991 Suzuki Samurai and never had issues?

Not really. It is surmised (I did some looking but found nothing conclusive) that the non-greasers are stronger?

The Dana Spicer 1350 series is hard to beat, they look cool too. I got some pics somewhere, not on this computer.
