Default U-Joint

Hi, everyone!

I'd like to ask if the universal joint on the drive shaft is the same as the one on the half-shaft?

Propshaft - halfshaft.

Happy Easter!
Many hanks!

My gut feeling would be no, but that's just an assumption.

If you go on the Jaguar Classic Parts website https://parts.jaguarlandroverclassic.../brand/jaguar/ you'll be able to find them in the exploded diagrams & check part numbers etc. It's a handy site to know just for the diagrams if nothing else. I'd buy elsewhere though as it's still main dealer prices.

Thank you for your reply!

Unfortunately, there is no information about the drive shaft joint on this site either. It’s shown in the diagram. Nor is there any on other sites—it’s as if this part didn’t even exist.


I came here hoping someone might be able to help.



Best regards, Tibor

A MAKE MODEL YEAR would help with part numbers BUT...........
The propshaft center U-Joint from Jaguar is NSS.(Not Sold or Serviced Separately)
It is offered as a complete assy.
There are 4 different propshaft assys from Jaguar.
4.0 Supercharged
LWB NXF5800JC
SWB NND5800FC
Except 4.0 Supercharged
LWB NXF5800HC
SWB NND5800EC

You will need to match the original with an aftermarket part.

Thank you for your reply!


1999, 3,2 SWB

Yes, that’s how I interpreted it based on the websites of parts dealers.

There are several companies in Hungary that specialize in refurbishing these parts. In fact, they made one for one of my cars, and it worked perfectly for 10 years until I sold it. That universal joint was also available for purchase separately. They installed it and balanced the entire driveshaft.

Regards, Tibor

I replaced the u-joint on my propshaft. If memory serves the part number is GUJ108
