Default check out Dragvette.com and Vansteel.com

I am looking into the same thing for my 71. Dragvette has the 3 inch halfshafts w/ spicers and flanges for $218 a pair.

Not sure if Van Steel offers this package, they do have the spicers for around $32 each and the flanges are $99 each. Adds up quick.

I've got the solid spicer joints (Spicer # 799) but all of my spicer joints are heat treated. I have neapco joints which are just as good if not better for $28 a joint.

Spicer changed their design and now use a plastic seal which often breaks upon installation and allows dirt to get up into the caps and causes premature failure. The Neapco joints still use rubber seals.
