I would run a Spicer or Neapco Ujoint. These cheap i,port ones from the auto parts stores do not seem to hold up and last.

ok, so i found this thread:
https://ls1tech.com/forums/gears-axl...-u-joints.html

i was originally gonna go with spicer. dont know why i changed my mind

is the spicer 5-795X the correct part number for the stock driveshaft, 10 bolt? and will it work for both sides?

i did find this Neapco part also at advance: http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/web...S_634231447___
or is it this one: http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/web...S_634234461___

both u joints are the same for a stock d/s, yoke, and rearend. if 5-795x is right for one end it'll fit the other.
