Busted U-Joint

[DragginBallz]

LOL,

I busted my rear driveline U-joint on my '92 Jeep Cherokee this morning. Guess i shouldn't have revved it to 4800 RPM and dropped it into Drive. Anyway, anybody know how to fix it or how much time, labor, and money it would take (estimate) to get it fixed? Oh, and is it possible to convert it from Auto to Stick? I don't really care if i keep the 4X4.

Um, I am not too sure about what i should check exactly. I know a little about cars, but that is mostly about FF imports. My email is [email protected]. I think I am just going to send it to a mechanic to see what he can do.
