55 Fargo Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 Hi all, want to replace my u-joints on the 47, anybody got a supplier, and or part number. I looked on our parts list here on the forum, but so far has not been any help. So if you know where I can buy u-joints, could you please let me know........Fred Quote
dezeldoc Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 Hi Fred, if you want the kit with the trunions and all they aren't cheap about 100 bucks or more, their are a few on ebay right now or burnbaum has them as does kanter. Quote
55 Fargo Posted July 3, 2009 Author Report Posted July 3, 2009 (edited) What is the difference, these just look like u-joints to me. What is the difference between the regular u-joints and trunion style....Fred correction mine are regular cross and yolk type Edited July 3, 2009 by Rockwood Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 ball and trunion don't look like a regular cross-joint...lol the ball and trunion is very much like the front wheel drive halfshafts of today..except you only have two balls... Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 Bill, part in part of the part in particular...! Quote
55 Fargo Posted July 3, 2009 Author Report Posted July 3, 2009 You Boys, makin fun of me now.................LOL Quote
55 Fargo Posted July 3, 2009 Author Report Posted July 3, 2009 Would a parts place be able to come up with a # if Fred measures the existing ones???? Shel, will have to pull them, but most likely any parts house will probably have something to fit, just which ones. I am surprised this is not simpler, there only cross and yolk u-joints, you would think that places like Rock Auto would have them........ Quote
55 Fargo Posted July 3, 2009 Author Report Posted July 3, 2009 Were the cross joints original to 47 Chrysler's? Yes Quote
55 Fargo Posted July 3, 2009 Author Report Posted July 3, 2009 You gave me an idea Shel, pull the driuveshaft off the parts car, then pull a u-joint, and take that in for shopping....... Quote
55 Fargo Posted July 3, 2009 Author Report Posted July 3, 2009 Do some measuring first anyway. parts car same model??? YUP Quote

I looked on our parts list here on the forum, but so far has not been any help.So if you know where I can buy u-joints, could you please let me know........Fred The MoPar part# is 947550 ( complete U-joint assembly) for the 6 cylinder Chrysler cars. The 6 and 8 cyl. chryslers all use a Detroit cross stlye U-joint. Quote
RobertKB Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 The MoPar part# is 947550 ( complete U-joint assembly) for the 6 cylinder Chrysler cars. The 6 and 8 cyl. chryslers all use a Detroit cross stlye U-joint. My Canadian Dodge D25 also has factory cross style U-joint. My spare differential is set up to take the same style joint. I have no idea why Chrysler stayed so long with the ball and trunnion. Quote
greg g Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 Wow, my 46 Plymouth has a ball and trunion on the front, and one of these on the rear, must had a bunch of stuff left from what ever they made during the war and used it up where they could. with this part number, Quote
