Can anyone give me the spicer or moog front and rear drive shaft universal joint part number, I think they are both the same front and rear. Thanks in advance JIM

Although they are listed in the ORD 9 for the M38 they are referred to as a Journal which often times does not include the 4 caps (Bearings), seals, & retainers. The old Spicer part numbers IE 2-5-198X do not convert directly to new kits. The CJ's switched U-Joints kit #'s between the CJ3A & the CJ3B so look for kits that match what you have in size and snap ring type.

Heads up there are two different slip yoke styles on M38's. The civvy style press on seal retainer and the threaded seal retainer.
