I think I need to replace them, either that or the belts in my tires are seriously screwed up. Its a 2000 2500, 8800lb truck. I see a listing in rockauto that says 3500lb axle, and 4500lb axle. The sticker on the door jamb says GAWR Front: 5200lb. I'd like to order the right joints, and I'm wondering if RockAuto even carries what I need...
If its an 8800 lb truck, the front axle is likely the 4500 lb axle, which should be a Dana 60. I believe the 3500 lb axle is a Dana 44. You can also check under the hood for the options sheet to see what front axle is in your truck.
Get dana/spicer u joints, Anything else is a waste of time because you will be doing them again shortly. I have a set of them but they are the non greasable ones if you are interested.

Do you happen to have the part number for that u-joint that fits the Dana 60 front axle?
