SKF UJ393 or MOOG 393 or Precision 393.
All of them have grease nipples. I have 3 SKF and one Precision u-joint. Best I could do as they ordered them in and they were all listed under the same part number at NAPA.

Luckily I am Electro Optronics tech and have the pins/skills to rebuild this. Just disappointed when things like this happen. Make-work projects that should be straightforward.

-40 this week so I thought a lot about cold air.
This is on the way!

Heat Cool and Defrost

Still need the compressor and lines and condenser and..... stuff.

Does that mean you have to remove the existing airbox and blower?

None of the stock components are re-used basically. I will have new heater lines, new vent hose, all new evaporator and condenser, new blower etc etc 

This will be a modern replacement of the old system. It should provide a nice quiet, leak free version of the old basic functions, but also give me AC! Of course, that means a bunch of new lines and a compressor and drier and yadda yadda yadda, but it will be worth it.

Mark,

Do you have a compressor in mind? Last time I was solo junkyarding, I saw that the early Pathfinders/D21 trucks used a V-belt pulley compressor. I didn't pick it up, but hopefully giving you a nudge to check that compressor out. R-134A too.

Thanks Wayne. I have one in mind... the Sanden 508 style v belt. I was thinking used too... but I can get a new one for about $175 Cdn pesos from fleabay.
I have the mount for a Sanden already.

So with temperatures around minus 30 Celsius for the last two weeks, my shop furnace decides to stop working this last weekend. Hot surface igniter died. Luckily, I was able to get a new one locally Monday night and get heat back into the shop. Unfortunately, I probably froze a lot of paint and chemicals that will need to be replaced. 

In the meantime I was inspired to strip some of the old blue paint off the Stroker... and found... more paint!

What do you guys burn up there?  I'm still on oil.  It's a dying technology around here I had to learn how to rebuild my own furnace.
