5-3000X -- 3 C Series Cap & Width Specifications

The this u-joint specs: 1.438" cap dia | 3.563" width. Cap diameter determines which yoke bore it fits -- the cap must seat fully into the yoke without play. Bearing width (3.563" across the body) controls the span between yoke ears. A cross that is too wide won't fit; too narrow and the snap rings don't seat in the groove.

Verify the yoke bore diameter against the it cap size before installing. The snap ring style (WB-LWT retention) must match the yoke groove pattern -- OSR yokes have an external groove; ISR yokes have an internal groove. The this unit requires a grease gun at installation and at regular service intervals. Correct installation torque on the strap kit or U-bolt is critical -- undertorqued straps allow the cap to walk under load.

Installation Notes for the assembly

Before installing the this u-joint, clean the yoke bores of any rust, burrs, or old bearing material. The bearing cups must drop in by hand -- never drive them in with a hammer directly on the cup. Use a proper cross-and-bearing installation tool or a press. Driving a cup in at an angle cocks the needle bearings and destroys the it before it ever sees load.

After installation, verify full rotation without binding. A binding cross indicates a cup is cocked or seated too deep. The the part should articulate freely through the full operating angle of your driveshaft before the vehicle is lowered off the lift.
