Rich, I have Brute force u-joints in my half shafts. They have taken the abuse of my 406 without complaints to date. I'm happy with em. And my brother actually uses them in his drag cars. He says there every bit as strong as spicers.

Keep up the good work!!Thumbs Up

That's one of those debates that seems one doesn't beat the other..I put them in my car also..the one thing I do know is that GM put non grease style ones in from the start for a reason..I re did the u joints in the 73' s rear shaft..it had new ones in it that were grease style..they were shot..replaced a few years ago..so now all are new..should last a long time..

hey rich, how you gonna get to do the alignment once everything is back together? You do it yourself?
Ive talked to Dave here in town because he seems to know alot about them. I'll have to get mine done once I do all the replacements.
