I just purchased my 90 XJ and the front driveshaft is gone and there is a bolt snapped off in the pinion yoke for the u-joint. Anyone know where i can get the u-strap design instead of the weak bolt type??

Drill the jholes in the yoke larger so you can use a U-bolt.

Thats not the best way to do it., u-bolts and straps dont center at quite the same place on the u-joint. You can pull a yoke from an earlier dana 30 that uses u-bolts (cj's for example) and run that.

randy's ring and pinion also has them as well as half a dozen other vendors.
