U-joints and motor mounts?
I am looking for u-joints and motor mounts for my 85. I want u-joints without grease fittings and I want polyurethane motor mounts. I can't find these anywhere, anybody have any suggestions???

I just put a set of driveline u-joints in my 88. I used the 5-786X. They have coated endcaps specifically for aluminum driveshafts. If the 5-786X are out of stock, you can use the 5-785X units, which are the same except they come with uncoated endcaps. Just put a touch of anti-seize on the caps. The 5-800X Spicer u-joints also have coated endcaps for the aluminum half-shafts, which I installed last year.
NAPA used to carry Spicer u-joints, but now sell no-name units made in Japan in their boxes. The local semi-truck driveline specialist shop carried the Spicer line at a reasonable price. My 2 driveline u-joints together were $29 + tax.
