for a stock d/s and rear... the best i found is the spicer non-greaseable. the stock u-joint is a saginaw 3R, also known as a 1344 joint.

this is where i ordered mine from, pretty cheap.

Spicer triple seals part number 5-795X, I run them in 1350 series and have put well over 1000hp thru them. The GM replacement is just a hair smaller.

OK but where do I find the spicer no greasable type? I think we only have one listing and that's a brute force u joint BTW I work for advance.
