You can buy new U-joints at many farm supply stores. They are used on farm machinery. Check your shaft diameter and whether it is a "D" or "double "D" configuration with two flats. Sometimes you can get them online like here and other places:

Shopping in person is better, the descriptions are terrible.

u-joint info
Subaru, I dont know if he has a website, but he will know about applications. Sounds like he's been at it for a long time, since he's semi-retired. Maybe you could keep looking around and find one cheaper, he buys them someplace.

Yes, that ujoint is smaller. I ran into an article of someone that built a steering shaft for his 4X using the same parts and collapsable shaft.
