you guys have to tell me what you think. >> All right, guys. Some of you probably know I grew up on the farm. This was common, more common than you can think. >> All right, Ryan, what are we looking at with this? And tell me about it, will you? Well, what it does is kind of three solutions. It keeps the grease from fleeing all over the bottom of the truck or on the road. So, there's the environmental side. Then, it keeps the junk out like our picture on the wall there. That's from a company that does a lot of work in landfills. And as you know, from being on the farm, >> the same thing happens in the harvest when those trucks are out there in the field. And guess what? >> The stocks are cut about ujint height >> and they wrap up. And guys have told us that the stocks wrap up so tightly around the U-jint that they'll actually push the pinion seal out. >> So what they want to do is keep junk out. Well, the way the system works is it's just two halves from the same mold so they're perfectly in balance. They don't throw the drive shaft out of balance. The covers ride on the drive shaft. They rotate with the drive shaft or the drive line. If it's on the drive shaft, great. Or the slip yolk, great. Doesn't matter. But they simply you have adjustable or different size pads according to the diameter of the drive shaft. There's a lot of diameters like 32. So you got to get the know the drive shaft diameter or we can sell you a kit with a lot of diameters in it. But you simply clip the pads onto the cover, assemble the covers together, and they clamp tightly on the drive shaft. >> Do you got to drill? >> No drilling, no fabrication, no cutting, no nothing. Does it help with mud at all? >> Oh, sure. It keeps the mud out of the U-jints. Yeah. Like guys in in rock quaries that are dump trucks that are working on rock quaries, things like that. Yeah. They're getting rocks occasionally tossed up into the U-jint. It'll break the joint. >> Yep. Yep. Okay. So, what does a unit like this go for? >> Well, the multi fit units, like if it was for a drive shaft, they're about 135 bucks. They're selling at places online for 128. >> How long does it take to install? about 10 minutes each. >> Where do you guys find it at? >> You can look at it at ujintcovers.com or you can also find it >> at highquality truck parts. >> We'll just go with ujintcovers.com. >> There you go. >>…
