1977 f 150 intermediate steering shaft replacement help

Hey guys I need to replace the intermediate steering shaft on my 1977 f150 custom with a 4 speed 351M.
The u joint in the shaft is shot. I have a 6 inch lift on it and need to know the easiest way to change this shaft out. Or is there a way to only replace that u joint.

Must be 4WD because 2WD does not have a lower steering shaft & coupler assy (what you call an intermediate shaft).

This is a one piece assembly (see 3B676 in pic). Ford did not supply any parts for it. It's obsolete, so you will have to replace it with a Borgeson shaft.
