Spicer 211355X Socket Yoke Assembly

Couldn’t find it at my local part store, so took a gamble on this as the listing said it wasn’t compatible with my 97 TJ. I have a 97 Jeep TJ with an AX5 manual transmission and NP231 transfer case. The middle section was a little longer than what came off the front driveline but it fit wit no issues. Installed it 8 months ago and still no issues with it.

Perfect fit and finish replacement for our 2001 Jeep TJ driveshaft. Much less cost than sourcing locally.Pre-greased. Will purchase again when needed.

I have a 97 jeep grand Cherokee 5.2L v8. I had a bad vibration that I couldn’t figure out. After searching the web I found out that my driveshaft had this. I have a custom tom woodys front driveshaft. I figured I’d replace this with the spicer u joints. Just by moving it around and looking for damage i couldn’t see anything that stood out. After the swap I took it for a drive and it solved my issue. I used a ball joint separator from AutoZone to remove the u joints. My vibration would start around 30 mph.

Quality part. Some reviews of this part lead one to believe it will fit your Jeep and go as far as saying "Amazon has it wrong with the fitment. It will fit your TJ". Maybe it will fit a standard TJ, BUT FYI, this WILL NOT fit a 2003-2006 Jeep TJ Rubicon with front driveshaft 1330. If you need this for a TJ Rubicon, get the Dana Spicer 211996X. This is a direct OEM non-greaseable replacement. If you want greaseable, which you really don't because servicing is a pain, get the Dana Spicer 211179X. You're welcome Rubicon owners!

This does fit jeep ZJs, I have purchased this part twice for my 1995 ZJ 5.2 quadratrac, and for my 1994 ZJ 4.0 selectrac, even though Amazon said it doesn't fit, if you got this part number from Spicer, then it is going to fit, Amazon's data is wrong and they need to fix it

I've had my '73 Bronco for about 25 years now (>Dana 44) and this one is something that has always flown under the radar for me, mostly because it's buried inside the 2 front u-joints and H collar on the rear wheel drive (side note: plans to get another one for the front). You can totally inspect, grease and even replace the surrounding u-joints and have them look and act 100% and not consider the centering yoke may be your problem until you physically drop the shaft and take it all apart. I'd been sitting on a new, full set of Spicer u-joints because I'd never replaced the 2 by the transfer case, but they have always looked and acted fine, yet (let me state, my Bronco has always been my main driver) knowing I'd never replaced them in 25 years, felt it was time. Anyhow, you know this centering yoke is there, you just never think to check it when you're actually under there, therefore (mostly due to the way sound travels undeneath) when mine developed a super-loud rotational squalking, along with a very strange "feel", yet knowing the relative good condition of my u-joints, the drive shaft was not the first culprit I considered. ANYHOW, this item + the new u-joints was the total remedy, and my EB has never acted so right. SO........if you have a Dana 44 or other Spicer shaft (applicable, of course) and you haven't ever replaced this in yours for 10+ years, do yourself a favor > spend the extra $10 over generic and get this Spicer brand. Your 4WD will appreciate you. Thanks.

This yoke assembly is really good quality. It fit my 1999 Jeep Wrangler TJ perfectly, only problem being it didn't work with the stock socket yoke rubber cover. The zerk fitting port is also super convenient.

I rebuilt my CV driveshaft with 1310 joints and this yoke assembly. Previously built by Tom Wood. It had greasable centering yoke without dust seal.There are two types of centering yokes, greasable vs non-greasable. The greasable version, that this is, does NOT have dust seal cover available. In fact, the dust seal Spicer sells is for the non-greasable version should NOT be used for the greasable version as it will not allow the yoke assembly to seat properly plus it won't seal.I personally would not use non-greasable unit of centering yoke as the seal half hazardly seals the assembly, I am not sure how the needle bearings are to survive millions of rotations during its life time without additional lube besides the rubber seal that goes around the yoke is nothing like the tight double seals seen on non greasable u joints.So there you have it, greasable centering yoke DOES NOT have dust seal available.
