Default Aftermarket U Joints/Carrier Bearing?

It looks like I am going to have to replace the carrier bearing and possibly the u joints in my Ram. The truck has a severe vibration between 0 and 15/20 mph during starting and stopping. This is apparently a common problem in these truck according to my friend that works at a dealership. He got me a quote for the replacement parts, but what I was wondering is if any companies make aftermarket parts. I have 52k on it and don't feel like having this happen every 50-55k miles.

Thanks.

Dan

There are some aftermarket ujoints but I have not seen any midshaft bearings from the aftermarket world...
