Guest Mish_Mish Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 I have 91 Isuzu Impulse RS and parts are sometimes impossible to get for it My u-joints are getting stiff and crunchy, so I am looking for a local shop to rebuild my driveshaft, since those u-joints are not replaceable and no longer sold via Isuzu anyways.

Lustalbert Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 Driveline 1 did a good job on my driveshaft for the buick. They are just down the way from IPS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The u-joints were never serviceable through isuzu, you have to buy the whole driveshaft. Usually its the carrier bearings that go out and stat making noise, not the u-joints. New carrier bearings and rubber insulators can sometimes be hard to track down, but I call merlin at St charles isuzu (he really works magic), he gives us isuzone guys a discount even though he drives a mustang A lot of guys try filling the insulators with silicone, but Ive heard good and bad about that. If you really want new u-joints (and a little performance) I've got a 1 piece driveshaft with loops sittin in my garage, only has a few passes on it. Maybe a little pricey and a little more rough than the stock, but let me know -Jono Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it usable on a daily basis? thanks mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supldys Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 they're safety loops. Well you cant use it with a factory exhaust, and it might have some more vibration than the factory one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you cant use it with a factory exhaust, and it might have some more vibration than the factory one I will try to rebuild mine with Driveline 1 (thank you guys!!!), but for now I am off to Napa on 161 for some Neon parts for my in-law's car. PM me your number if you like, let's swap some parts, I got some extra things for Impulse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
