I think Motormite makes them. You can find them in the HELP! section at Pep-Boys, Autozone, Checker, etc. I think they're pretty cheap also.

RE: Rag Joint

I just replaced mine about 3 months ago. I got it at Dennis-Carpenter.com. You can also try http://www.lmctruck.com/index.htm.

The previous owner of my truck replaced it with a UJ, it works great.
