Pontiac Firebird Universal Joint Parts Questions & Experts Answers

  • Q: What are the common problems associated with universal joints and how can they be diagnosed on Pontiac Firebird?
    A: More often, universal joint problems include worn or damaged needle bearings, which present as vibes in the driveline or knocks when the transmission is engaged or the clutch is slipped. Failure to lubricate results in metallic squeaking which is then followed by grinding and shrieking as the bearings wear out. It is quite easy to check the needle bearings for wear and damage when the driveshaft is in place. When checking the rear universal joint, grip one end of the driveshaft while the other is gripped by the differential yoke: any movement of the latter indicates that the unit is worn. When working with front universal joint, clutch the driveshaft with one hand and the sleeve with another hand in the yoke of the transmission; anything that rotates call for replacement. If wear or damage is confirmed, the universal joints have to be disassembled to replace the bearings with new ones hence the reason why the procedure should be study before use.
