Universal Joint 1310/SPL 22 Series OSR 1.062 Cap

The Dana Spicer Universal Joint 1310/SPL 22 Series with 1.062 inch bearing caps is a precision drivetrain component designed for vehicles requiring 1310-series to SPL 22-series conversion or replacement. Built from steel with natural finish, this universal joint includes retaining clips and is engineered to handle the torque and angular load demands of four-wheel-drive trucks, off-road recovery vehicles, and heavy-duty driveline applications where reliable power transfer is non-negotiable.

The 1.062-inch bearing cap specification denotes the cross-section dimension that interfaces with the driveshaft tubing or yoke. This size designation ensures proper fit within Dana axle assemblies and transfer case output configurations common in light-duty to mid-range 4x4 platforms. Steel construction provides the fatigue resistance and rigidity required for sustained off-road duty, while the included retaining clips simplify installation and eliminate the need for additional hardware sourcing. The natural (uncoated) steel finish is standard for OEM and restoration applications, though users in high-moisture environments should plan for protective treatment or regular maintenance.

This joint is suited for vehicle owners performing driveline rebuilds, shaft repairs, or upgrades where factory 1310-series to SPL 22-series compatibility is required. Weighing 1.19 pounds, it is lightweight enough for straightforward installation by experienced technicians using standard driveline tools. The Dana-Spicer product line has maintained industry standard in four-wheel-drive applications for decades, making this component a reliable choice for vehicles that demand consistent power delivery under variable terrain and load conditions.
