Verify bearing cap diameter, overall length, and joint style before installation. This MOOG 409 universal joint uses outside-of-bearing length measurements, so compare the existing joint carefully to confirm the correct rear driveshaft application. Clean the yoke bores thoroughly, align the caps evenly during pressing, and lubricate through the fitting after installation.
