Ordered the Crown 5207805 shaft after reading an article on how to adapt it to my LJ. The ujoint is shot in my current setup. After getting the new shaft, I have no clue. I need those clues! Or did I order the wrong part? Thanks!
 
Ok, upon further inspection, there are three ujoints. It’s the middle one, to the right of the bracketed bearing.
 
Where did you find this article about adapting it to your ‘03?

I didn’t save it. My guess with this lower Crown shaft, from 99-02 or something, you punch out the bottom end to gear, and put the longer one from the 2003-06 setup from the Jeep. I need the shaft to the firewall.
