Default Yoke and rear driveshaft help

i'm having trouble trying to find a slip yoke and rear driveshaft for my Ram 1500 5.9 4WD. i can't find them. i have to replace them because the rear driveshaft decided it didn't like being on my Ram anymore and fell off. luckly the only damage to the truck was the yoke broke. The dealer said it was going to be 500.00 to get a new one and i'm sure that i could find one for less than that. also the driveshaft got run over by a semi so now i need both parts. if anyone can give me a website that would be great. thanks

Try a junk/salvage yard. A driveshaft and yoke should be a pretty common item, And there ain't much to them. Either they are broken, or they aren't, nothing mechanical to be concerned about.

You can buy a yoke at any offroad shop, here's one:

If you want a new driveshaft, call an independant tranny or diff shop.
