buy a haynes or chiltons, and a wrench... i think your abilities will suprise you... its very easy to replace a joint.

If you do not want to do it yourself, try Jack Lyons Truck Parts. Ask for Alan Lyons and tell him you are a member of the Plantation Jeep Club & that Ian sent you.

Thanks for the suggestions. I would do it my self but the centering ball and the yoke strap at the tcase end are shot. I tried doing searches on the web but I can’t find the parts. This fact alone scares me.

The centering ball eat through the sleeve that it rides in which allowed things to slip and it ground the face of the strap down.
