Spicer U Joints

[kramarj]

I am in pretty desperate need of some new u joints. Put new Napa joints in about 15k miles ago, now have a cracked cap on one of them. I would like to go back to OEM. I found places to order them, but nothing specific to a 97 f250. I would go through the dealer, but they have a new parts guy and I really don't want to deal with getting the wrong parts. To get new u joints for the front driveshaft took over an hour of looking, don't have the time for that. Where do I get them and does anybody have part numbers for the rear driveshaft? If I have to go back to the dealer I will, but would like an alternative. I would appreciate any help.

They should be regular Spicer joints, i wanna say our trucks take 1310 and 1350's. Should be able to get em just about anywhere.

front shaft is not a regular spicer size
it is a ford specific size. part number 5-792x
it is a 1330 with 1/16" larger caps on at least two ends

rear is regular 1350 iirc

I ordered a number of parts from Northern Drivtrain when I was rebuilding my Dana 60 and was happy with them. They had the Spicer parts I wanted.

Thanks for the replies. I ended up ordering them through Tousley, or what was Tousley, they changed their name. Thanks again, I will save this if I ever need to get them again.

What would I need to have if I ordered 1410 u joint? Other universal than stock?
