Cross Reference Numbers
Common buyer and catalogue searches for the 70166 universal joint include 2205030B761, 2205030B761/B, 2205030B761/C, UW70166, UW70166PK. These references help buyers locate the correct dimensional family and request a quotation.
Letter suffixes can indicate application, production or specification differences. Cross-reference numbers should therefore be treated as search and identification references, not an automatic guarantee of interchangeability. Confirm the 70×166 mm dimensions and the original equipment number before ordering.
Typical Applications
This 70×166 mm universal joint is most commonly associated with FAW Jiefang heavy trucks. Market listings connect the 2205030B761/B reference with FAW J5 and J6, while other suffixes in the same family are also advertised for JH6 and J7 driveline positions. Vehicle model alone is not sufficient because axle, propeller-shaft and production variations can change the required joint.
The strongest export opportunity is replacement demand from truck-parts distributors, fleet maintenance operators and driveline workshops serving markets with an established FAW vehicle population. The model of 70166 universal joint is especially suitable for exact-part-number and size-based SEO because buyers often search by 2205030B761 or 70×166 immediately before requesting price and availability.
Installation and Verification
Clean and inspect the yoke bores before assembly. Press each bearing cup of 70166 universal joint squarely, protect the needle bearings from displacement, and use the retention method specified for the matching yoke. After installation, verify smooth articulation, correct propeller-shaft phasing, lubrication, fastener torque and shaft balance before returning the vehicle to service.
For compatibility support, send MR Driveline the complete OE number, bearing cup diameter, overall span, vehicle model, axle or propeller-shaft position and clear photographs of the removed joint. A sample or dimensional drawing is preferable when the part-number suffix is uncertain.
