    Does anyone have any experience changing universal joints in the older GM torque tube vehicles?
    The last car to have this was the 1960 Buick and I have.. of course... a 1960 Buick with a squeeky universal. Any advice or guidance would be appreciated.

    Andrew,

    Thanks for the link. I have had difficulty finding info on these differentials. Could it be that the last one used is 50 years old now? My car has the squeak of death (universal) and I have tried greasing the zerk fitting with no luck. At least I now know that I will have to drop the diff to gain access to the propshaft. I have absolutely no leaks now so I hate to tear into it but it needs to be replaced. I'll pencil it in as another winter job; in between snowmobile rides.
