Where can I pick up a new u-joint? Should I look into a junkyard? I am very very new to Z's and am restoring a 1971 Datsun 240Z and am trying to fix everything I can. I'll have pictures up in a few days.

Order them from MSA, you can get a 'stock' replacement for cheap or the race quality ones made by Spicer for a bit more.

The Spicer ones aren't to bad at all $24.95 a pop @ two per driveshaft. Which would last longer, the Spicer of the "Stock" replacements?

From what everyone here said when I was doing mine Spicer are the way to go...so I did. I only did mine a couple months ago so I can't tell you from personal experience. I'm sure many others here can though.

24.95 a pop! :cross-eye

Umm you would be better off going to your local Advance Auto parts or like store.

They have the spicers for about 12 bucks each.

$12 each @ Autozone or similar. Interesting, I will have to look into that. Thank you for letting me know. How reliable is the Motorsport Auto store? That is where I got the price from. Thank you.

just check the local auto parts store, they have more than one level of quality . you get what you pay for . :classic:

Sounds good. The car has been set off to the side, and is getting slowly stripped so we (my mechanic and I) can get everything cleaned and ready for restoration. Thank you guys a bunch. :classic:
