Axle Universal Joints
General Motors used an small axle universal joint with tiny 1-1/16" diameter u-joint cups for the 1969 to 1972 Dana 44 open knuckle front axles. The physical dimensions of this series of axle joint means is marginal for full size truck applications which is why it was replaced by a medium size axle u-joint with 1-3/16" cups for the 1973 model year.

Differential and Pinion Bearings (Individual)
All 1969 to 1972 Chevy K10/K20 and GMC K15/K25 4x4 trucks with open knuckle Dana 44 Front Axles use the same differential and pinion bearings.
All bearings are not created equal for fit or durability, so we only stock first class, long lasting, Timken® Differential and Pinion Bearings for your Dana front axle. Timken® was and is a a major original equipment supplier of top-notch bearing components to Dana Spicer. Since I first started rebuilding Dana axles in the mid 1970's, I have found Timken® Bearings to be the most consistent in relation to the published dimensions of any bearing on the market which makes rebuilding an axle right the first time a WHOLE lot easier!
