Its funny you mention that, because I can’t tell if maybe the caps on the UJ aren’t the right size or if its like what you said, but I swear I saw the cap move around in the yoke a little bit, and as I think back to it I remember those caps sliding in a little too well, I originally thought it was because we had put them in the freezer.



I guess I don’t know enough about driveline geometry evidently. I will be trying 2 things next before I bite the bullet on that one. 1) put in new, reliable UJ’s from Moog, and 2) get an aftermarket DS from those Texas Driveshaft Specialist guys, I don’t care much for the OEM driveshaft, and if the yokes are worn out then it doesn’t matter how many UJ’s I put in and times I adjust the pinion angle. All else fails, Any aftermarket 2wd control arms you would recommend?
Moog on rockauto look to be about $30 more per rear upper control arm: More Information for MOOG RK643506
OEM are about $100 each: 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner Upper Control Arm 48710-35030 | Toyota Parts

I would go with OEM
