i got the brute force u joint. hopefully it'll hold up, but if it doesn't then i'll just change it again. now that i've done it i see that it isn't as bad as people hype it up to be.
its not a bad idea to change them both out if you've never done it before. i thought my passenger side was still good because it was nice and tight but when i pulled both axles out to change the driver axle seal i found out that the passenger u joint was seized up a little bit due to lack of grease. all together it should cost you about 40$ to do them both if you already have the hub nut socket. if you don't then it should cost about 60 because you'll need a 1 11/16" socket and a 3/4" drive breaker bar.
