Hey Powelcrazy If you have the drive still out you might want to measure the U joints. If I remember they are a 1 1/8 X 3 1/2. Spicer should have a part # for them. At $134 each I hope they are gold plated or atleast stainless. But always ust the HD parts.

Castaicpiper,
Don't have old ones any more to measure, did this job a year ago. I do remember there were 2 different sizes and prices, which ever I needed they were the pricey ones. Your link is not showing spicer, but sierra and some other off brand. I did look at sierra u-joints, could not find what I needed and decided to go with OEM parts.

If I ever do them again, spicer ones are going in!!!

Spicer joints for my jeep, $12, for the Ford $35

As well as there being 2 sizes, earlier DPS joints had external circlips on the bearing cases to retain them in the yokes, later ones used internal circlips in the yokes.

Did you purchase these at your local dealer or from somewhere else? My bellows is beginning to show signs of cracking...
