Just the opposite. S1/S2 have replacable ujoints, while S3 does not. However, the 83 can have either setup, from the factory. According to the parts micro-fiche, all 83's have the larger flange and non-sevicable ujoints, but some early 83's had the same setup as the 79-82.

Easy way to tell which flange you have. The large flange has 4 holes, none are threaded and is a square pattern, while the small flange has 4 threaded holes, but is not square.
