Replacing drivers side unit bearing on 2016 JKU

[DesertRaider]

So I’m hearing a noise that I believe is my front drivers side unit bearing going out. My plan is to swap it out next week and while I’m doing that also swap out my u-joints. My question is can I use the Dana Spicer 5-760x ujoints instead of the 5-1310? The 5-760x definitely looks beefier therefore hoping to get more road/wheeling time aka abuse.
My rig is not the the Rubicon model, it is the JKU sport (not that I think that would matter). Thanks in advance

I am not sure on if the different j-joint will work or not.
My only comment is if you upgrade the u-joint, you are potentially moving the failure point.
This failure point would become the axle itself or the ears on the axle.
The one and only front axle I broke, it was stock and when the u-joint let loose, I ended up breaking the ears on both axle stubs.

Nope, just slowly building it better than a Rubicon
