Default Spicer U Joints

Can someone tell me where to buy spicer U joints for my 88? I cant find any spicer dealers. Also does anyone know the sizes I need for the prop shaft and the half shafts?
Thanks :)

I think some of the corvetteforum vendors has them... check with speed demon or Tom Byrne (TBYRNE)... they are both listed on the left margin...

I just did a quick internet search for "spicer u joints" and found that Vansteel has them, too.

Mine were from a local CarQuest dealer. Just specify "Spicer" when ordering. If the parts guy is knowledgable, he'll know exactly what your talking about.

I got mine from Tom's Differentials. Earlier post has web address. They are very informed, easy to deal with and have competitive prices. Be sure to ask for no zerks and aluminum shaft application.
