You should have no problems getting new ujoints from any auto parts store or ford dealer. They are easy to replace with one exception...getting under the car. It is a tight fit under there. Also...check to make sure you haven't lost any wheel weights and that you don't have a wheel out of balance. That could cause a vibration as well.

I wasnt going to find a youtube vid for u joint replacement but the ones Im seeing are on drive shafts that are rusted to heck and guys tearing at u joints or whole shafts...but you'll get the point here.


Its not bad and I've just used a hammer and small socket instead of a vice. Just don't beat the tar outta anything because you don't want to deform anything.

If you go that route get a driveshaft shop DS. DSS
