Ok, I am working on this WC63, and they have like ten drive shafts and a ton of U joints. So, I have a stack of NOS US made U joints that came with my WM300, but somehow half of the C clips are missing.
I can't find a source for them anywhere. I need 17 of them.
I hope someone has some, or knows where to get them.
PM me.

Re: HELP! I Need U Joint C Clips
The OD of the caps is 1.23. and the groove is 1.15. Thickness of the clips is .96. All Dodges use this even in the large U joint between the transmission and the transfer case.

Re: HELP! I Need U Joint C Clips
That's one that I can't help you with..... Looks like no one wants to list or sell the C clips for.
The joint is a 5380 series detroit u joint 1.232" OD cup. None of these folks service just the C clips.
Crosses over to a 5-1301 Spicer or a 3-056 Neapco U Joint
Can you salvage any of the C clips from the old U joints?
Sorry, Roger

Re: HELP! I Need U Joint C Clips
If I had the old U joints I would use the clips. I didn't disassemble it and the PO threw them away.
I'll just weld them to the straps.
(That is a joke; many guys do not get humor here.)
I'll call Vintage Power Wagons Monday; they have tons of crap laying around.

Re: HELP! I Need U Joint C Clips
Look What I Found!
Your reply got me to think I was screwed to the wall and might have to buy new U joints just to get the clips. So I searched though the box of parts that came with my WM300; lo and behold; there wa a little plastic bag full of U joint clips!!! The parts came with the truck which was owned by Appalachian Power Company and it was sold by City Auto in Pineville WV.
So, thanks.
