I need to replace the u-joints. Where do y'all get your replacements?? Which ones last the longest?

NAPA P/N #344. Supposedly much stronger. Should run about $25.00. I just ordered one, it should be in my hands by 1530.

Make sure that your sliding joints slide, especially the front one. Seems to be more prone to seizing. If it is seized, don't let the local driveshaft shop tell you it needs to be replaced.

If you're also doing the back ones, don't forget the roto-flex. Now would be a good time to replace all of them (U-joints/roto-flex).
