Look in the Yellow Pages under DriveShaft Service, locally mine were about $17 each. Also I would recommend taking the halfshafts in and have the shop swap them out and balance shaft.
The Spicers came highly recommended by the local shop, the only issue they have is the black dust cap has a tendency to crack while installing onto shaft, in which case you need to remove the u-joint again and replace the black cap. Local shop showed me a whole box of the dust caps which had cracked on them, but without a doubt they said they were the strongest and wouldn't recommend anything else.
