I have a 73 2.0 and having to replace both the upper and lower steering bearings. I noticed the both of the steering U-joints and have lots of rust. Would like to know if you can take apart the u-joint and blast the metal to remove the rust, then put it back together. Is it possible or better just to buy recondition parts. Thanks

They are sold new at many auto supply places and probably ebay and amazon.
I purchased some for my JWest shift linkage kit. I have cleaned old ones and sent them for plating and they came out nice. |
