I need a new U-joint. I've never not used Spicer in anything. International doesn't have any in stock, and they want like $330 for one with a strap kit. Fleetpride has their house brand in stock for about $130.
Have you ever used an off-brand U-joint before? Do they hold up? Money isn't so much the concern, as I don't want to wait.
Edit: Ogburn's has Neapco U-joints in stock as well.
Edit: Nevermind, I found a Spicer at Inland Truck Parts. You can still share your thoughts on the matter for future generations if you want, but my problem is solved.

I know if someone who had a U-joint made in China that only lasted a little over 30k miles.

Old one out. I hoped I could do it under the truck, but no luck. Had to pull the whole drive line and get busy with a sledge hammer. Holy fudgepacker was that thing wiped out. I didn't replace it before, because "I've seen worse." Well.....it got worse.
