    Good find - will call tomorrow.

    Shaft was $89+$15 shipping.

    Just tried that number - no answer. Will try again in a bit. Ryan, what is his PBB username - I will just PM him.

    Part of the reason these failed (according to Jimmy) is that they have never been greased. Don't I need some type of special fitting for my grease gun to do this? Any suggestions on what I should ask for?
    Thanks,

    The u-joint actually didn't fail, but the bronze bushings in them were trashed because of the lack of grease. Also I don't know if it says to do it, but I would freeze the caps overnight before installing.
