Ah, so it is an SS shaft. Still wonder if the Z/28 shaft is beefier? Yeah, I've sold and installed hundreds, maybe thousands, of u-joints over the years. Listened to everyone I worked for as to why ours was 'better than Spicer.' (never worked for Dana) Probably none are better than Spicer in the automotive world. But Meritor (now Cummins) probably does have Spicer beat on class 8 trucks. Million mile warranty on a non greaseable u-joint!
