scrapyardsam Posted September 26, 2015 Report Posted September 26, 2015 I just bought a 1951 Dodge 1-1/2 flatbed with a broken u-joint. I have tried Napa and my local parts store with no luck. They both said that they don't make that size u-joint anymore. Anybody have any idea where I might get one? It measures 4-1/4" wide. Thanks. Quote
Don Coatney Posted September 26, 2015 Report Posted September 26, 2015 You may need to replace the joint with a modern one. Where in Indiana are you located? Quote
Dodgeb4ya Posted September 26, 2015 Report Posted September 26, 2015 Mopar # 1238416 is the OE #. Search it. Quote
scrapyardsam Posted September 27, 2015 Author Report Posted September 27, 2015 I am located in Laporte, IN. Thanks for the information. Quote
scrapyardsam Posted September 29, 2015 Author Report Posted September 29, 2015 I have searched the net and nobody has this u-joint. I would really like to drive this truck. Anybody know of anyway I could get it going. Thanks. Quote

William Davey Posted September 29, 2015 Report Posted September 29, 2015 Have you tried any commercial driveline specialty shops? In our area Fleet Pride services commercial vehicles and they built a new drive shaft with new U-joints and a new yoke for my differential (half-ton). Quote

1949B-1-C Posted April 9, 2016 Report Posted April 9, 2016 Hey just trying to help someone out, I know this is old but I came across an NOS u joint 1238416. I was told it was for a 3/4 ton but it's obviously not. I did advertise it but I know it was brought up here so I figured I would let everyone know. Quote
Batterzazu Posted September 5, 2017 Report Posted September 5, 2017 Hey 1949B-1-C, can you measure that u-joint? I may be interested in it. Scott Quote
Young Ed Posted September 6, 2017 Report Posted September 6, 2017 If it looks like the one above but measures different I might have one too Quote
Batterzazu Posted September 6, 2017 Report Posted September 6, 2017 The u-joint that I am looking for has a 1.142 diameter cap and the distance across the caps is 4.125. A real bugger to find! Quote
Batterzazu Posted September 7, 2017 Report Posted September 7, 2017 1949-B-1-C that looks like the right part number. How much do you want for it and how can I get you the money? PayPal? Quote
