Clips too thick... ??....

plt-1Member

I just put 60 miles on my car after not having it for a few years. All instruments indicate a happy power plant. I was leaving napa and heard something sling out from my tread, I though " that was a pretty big rock"... I decided to wheel it over and take a look. I did not thouroghly check the U joint cap retaining clips for proper seating and my u joint slung the cap out. I had a flat bed recover the car and replaced all the thick clips with proper fitting thinner clips. I'm sure this is old news to you guys but, I just learned it the hard way ( could have been much worse). If you are able to seat one thick clip on one side it effects the seat gap of the opposing clip as they are too wide... The thinner off the shelf clips seem to be working, so far..
