The Universal Joint in Chevrolet S10 is also used to link the driveshaft to the differential in order to achieve required motion in the event that the car's suspension responds to the roads surface. This joint allows the driveshaft to turn, such as when the angle of two parts changes with relation to each other. Ordinarily the Universal Joint is a cross containing needle bearings located in hardened metallic holders anchored in place by clips. Throughout the years, S10 vehicles have used both factory pre-lubed U Joints, and greasable U Joints with grease zerk fittings for relubrication. Worn U Joints becomes noticeable in that it will produce some clunking noises during gear shifts and vibrations at speed and would therefore require inspection and possibly replacement. Periodically, there are wear indicators on a U Joint like cracked seals or red dust that should always be checked.

Chevrolet S10 Universal Joint Parts Questions & Experts Answers

  • Q: What tools are required to service and repair the universal joint, and what are the steps involved in the process on Chevrolet S10?
    A:
    To service nylon injected and external snap ring universal joints requires using U Joint Bearing Separator (J 9522-3) plus U Joint Bearing Spacer Remover (J 9522-5). Set the propeller shaft into the press table with minimum contact that might harm the tubing. Tag the shaft surface at the transmission and rear axle positions. Secure the lower yoke end on a 1 1/8 inch socket stand while using the U Joint Bearing Separator (J 9522-3) to push the bottom bearing cup from the yoke cavity. When the bearing cup proves difficult to remove use the U Joint Bearing Spacer Remover (J 9522-5) by inserting it into the yoke ear. Follow the propeller shaft rotation to take off the opposite bearing cup from the slip yoke then write down its orientation for reassembly. Check for any damage or foreign materials in the bores and grooves of both retaining rings and bearing cups after extracting them. After making sure the trunnion seat fits properly you can push the bearing cup at one end of the yoke all the way until it stops. Fit the second bearing cup in the yoke and match its trunnion positions. Use the press to move the bearing retainer until its groove shows then fit both retainers into place. A basic hammer tool should be used briefly on the yoke if it does not fit properly while grease on the retainer snap ring makes insertion simpler.
