5-165X universal Joint OSR 41.2×142 1650 Series 4-0165 1.625×5.590

When a fleet vehicle starts to exhibit clunking noises during acceleration or deceleration, it often points to a failing U Joint. The 5-165X U Joint is specifically engineered to address these issues, especially in heavy-duty applications. With a cap diameter of 1.625″ and a width of 5.590″, this joint fits perfectly into the 1650 Series specifications, ensuring optimal torque transfer between angled shafts.

Failure to replace a worn U Joint can lead to more severe driveline issues, including vibrations that can affect the entire vehicle. The 5-165X U Joint, with its robust design, is built to withstand the rigors of heavy-duty use, providing a reliable solution to the problem of torque transfer. Its OSR style enhances its durability, making it a preferred choice for those who demand performance and longevity.

Here are some key points to consider when installing the 5-165X:

• Ensure the snap rings are fully seated to prevent binding.
• Check for any signs of rust or dust around the caps, which may indicate wear.
• Do not hammer the caps during installation; this can lead to misalignment.

By choosing the 5-165X U Joint, you’re not just replacing a part; you’re investing in the longevity and reliability of your driveline system.
