Definitely call, it seems strange that it has them listed for Manual (All 82). There were no manual transmissions in the 1982 model. I believe that style is for the 1350 series U-joint. If you check the caps on yours you can tell if they're 1330 or 1350 by the outside diameter. The 1330 is 1.062" and the 1350 is 1.188".

The 80-81 manual cars are the same as the 82. They put all the heavier components from the 80-81 manual cars in the 82. They use a larger u-joint than the 80-81 auto cars. 80-81 manual and 82 auto only, used the 1350 half shaft u-joints with 5/16" strap bolts. The 80-81 auto cars used the 1330 half shaft u-joints with 1/4" strap bolts.
