Replacing trans - do the u-joints?

[wood_e]

I'm getting my trans replaced...

Should I have them do my u-joints while they're at it?

For sure. Easy to do.

I agree but only IF you dont put some crappy cheap aftermarket bosch 02 sensors.

Motorcraft sensors even the stock ones are probably better than brand new bosch sensors.

^ I've had good luck with Bosch units over the years - why the hate?

I have new Bosch (two weeks ago installed) and unless I find a vacuum leak, one is bad.

because they SUCK right out of the box.

more times than not, a user..myself included put bosch 02s in and they were either.. SLOW.. or worse than the original high mile o2 sensors.

Many have ran into this issue with the crappy bosch 02's...

a "single" case of someone not having a problem with them doesnt change my opinion or experience with them.

And this isn't "HATE" this is fact backed up by nearly a half a million miles of experience.

The EGR tube and the IACV are two things to consider replacing while they are in there too.
