Having just finished this job on mine. I would stay away from the u-joints from the above mentioned sources. I would look for a spicer distributor in your area. Look for a truck parts place or a drive line shop.

Another alliterative is the neapco u-joints, they are available from advance auto parts chains or through parts america. They seem very well built and have a good reputation.

Best place to find Spicer is at a heavy truck parts store.
