Rag joint question

[jmiedzinski]

Hi,

This is the second rockauto rag joint I installed in my truck and after literally 150 miles it looks like this

Did I screw the installation or this is just quality issue ? Can you point me to the place that sells online better quality one ? I'm kinda limited to the online buy because I live overseas.
Rgds,
Jerry

Maybe just me, but it looks like the 2 halves of that shaft are too close together.

Good question. Is there room for the 2 halves of the shaft to telescope together? Or is it all jammed up tight?

What else can you tell us about the truck? Any body mount changes? Is it all stock? Or have modifications been done to suspension, steering, body work?

(I moved this thread to the steering forum, which seemed more appropriate.)
