Are there different sizes or just one size of u-joint for the axle shafts on a 2001? The reason I ask is cuz my 2000 TJ came with two different sized u-joints so I was wondering if the XJ came with multiple sizes too. I could just get under there and measure the cap size but it's snowing like crazy and almost 10 degrees out.
 
One size...
OE#4137757 which becomes a 8126638. Also known as spicer 297x or 760x U joints.

1.188 cap size, 2.934 cross length, 2.188 between snap rings.

Thanks a bunch! I went out and confirmed the u-joint cap size to your measurements and got some high performance off road u-joints from Napa. :wave1: No more brute force joints for me, although they lasted two years.
