Default Part number/dimensions of rear universal joints

Does anyone know the size/dimensions of the rear driveshaft universal joints, or what other models of car are compatible?

I'd quite like to replace them with more modern sealed higher strength ones without grease nipples when I have the IRS removed.

My old hand written records of years gone by has:

Halffshaft joints = K5GB10R.

Used on many many vehicles, Ford F Series, Isuzu Truck, etc etc.

I always used grease nipple spec, but thats me.

I have a thread on this if you feel it might be useful.

Thanks for the responses & the thread link Greg - I'll have a read through.
Those DANA Spicer joints look like the sort of thing I'm after. One, perhaps obvious question though - you've linked to 2 different parts:

5-1410XP
5-1310X

I'm a total newbie to UJ's but I'd guess these are 2 completely different parts with the part number linked to the dimensions, so how can they both fit? Or is that not how these part numbers work.

Bit of searching & I think i've answered my own question, courtesy of a really good old thread by Greg!:
https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...-225834/page2/

5-1410 is correct size, with the 106.4mm length
5-1410XP is the non-grease nipple high temp seals version so I think i'll get that.

Yes, correct; one is non greasable, one has a grease nipple (as i mentioned in post 4 above!). The dimensions are identical. Just fantastically high quality UJs, far more precisely made and many more needle rollers than standard. Not that dear from Rockauto, either.
