Front drive shart - part enq
I while back I posted about a noise coming from the front when turning. Long story \ short , the noise was coming from the front driveshaft. Specifically the Rzeppa joint. I took it out while I contemplated my next move. =============> http://www.ausjeepoffroad.com/forum/...d.php?t=150750
I now have some time to fix it and with my search have come across this
https://www.driveshaftparts.com/inde...product_id=978
Q: Is this kit priced at $22 US all I need to replace the rzeppa joint ? Seems a little on the inexpensive side as I can recall it would have cost me $200 on parts alone when I did my research a year ago. I think it was from rockauto.

Mine came in at around A$50, so I'd say you're in the ballpark.

following this thread with interest as I might have similar issue with my front drive shaft. Wheel CVs, steering, diffs are all okay. Just to confirm...
As I understand it the Rzeppa joint that goes to transfer case at rear of shaft isn't serviceable? So once it's stuffed it's better to swap it with something like zappa has linked: https://www.driveshaftparts.com/inde...product_id=978
And you can service the front with one of these:

many thanks.

You can buy both of the joints separately and change them both. I did mine about 18 months ago when chasing a front end grind and still going fine.
