Post looking for u joints for 6.5 hp longtail
Can anyone point me in the right direction for a 3/4" x 3/4" u joint with 3/16" keyway? ive found some but only rated for 1,000 rpm. they look very beefy but my motor turns up to 3600!

I just rebuilt my 10 year old 6.5 Mudbuddy with a new engine and U-joint.

Nobody had exactly what I wanted so I called Mud Buddy, they have their U-joints custom made for them for exactly the RPM's you are talking about. They will have what you need without guess-work or hassle.

Measure the Cross width and the Cap OD and go to a parts store.
