Mine started making a click and squeek. I removed the driveline and dropped it off at the local driveline repair shop.

They replaced all the joints, and the center support bearing, then balanced it. $300 retail. Perhaps cheaper where you live.

Now I have lube fittings on the joints, so once a year I can give it a squirt or 2.

I wouldn't suggest you change your own u joints if you have never done it.

I have done a few and they are always tricky. If you don't know the tricks. You could mess something up severely.

SO I agree, pull the shaft and take it to a drive line shop. Or take the car and let them pull it. I also preferr spicer u joints but I don't know if you can get them for a supra. Good luck man.

grease zerks are always a plus. Lube them up untill the seals pop with the grease. Your good.
