my bad, i just replaced the boot, i broke a u joint. been really busy with work. I priced the parts i need locally. 4 spider gears, the washers and the pin. $246
i havent checked junk yards yet, havent had the time. i ran into a couple problems this week too, snapped the front u joint on the rear drive shaft, which in turn broke the rear and caused the drive shaft to end up in the ditch. i got a buddy to come help me push it off the road so the cops didnt tow it. got it put back together by car lights that night(i was on my way home from work when it happened)
