i think the one for the 500 is around $50, the one for the 450 is about $100 I think they are stronger. I haven't torn it down yet to see the damage to the shaft.

How are you guys breaking these U joints( Under what conditions??)How many have actually broke them ?
I havent torn into the rear of my 4 wheeler but as a preventive measure i think i might go ahead and put a 450 joint in. Can some one give me a brief overview of whats involved in puttin one in. Iv done u joints on trucks befor but this is alittle different. Any pics?
