Rear Drive Shaft U-Joint Cup size for 91 XLT Manual Trans?

[chris070780]

My U-joints went bad in my Rear drive shaft on my 91 XLT 5-speed. I have been off-roading with a 91 Auto Tranny drive shaft which is smaller. So I figure its best I fix my bigger shaft. What is the cup size of the U-joint on the Manual Transmission rear drive shaft? Thanks!

According to Orielly's, the rear shaft, manual or auto, takes U joints with cup diameter of 1.063"

Ugh, seems every site I go to gives a different size.

2 or 4 wheel drive on the 5 speed?

I just replaced mine last week. I can help w/ a part # after you let me know about it being 2 or 4wd.

I used these, they have a grease fitting, and come pre-greased ready to install. It says you need a strap kit, but this isn't true for the explorer because, the u-joint is pressed in and uses clips.

There's the $12 ones but I don't see a grease fitting on them to be able to service them.

Well I used the 2wd version, but this is the brand I used. The store gave me crap for wanting the cheaper joints... I told them I don't have a 400hp v6, why do I need the brute force joints.
