Best U Joints

I need to replace two of them in my rear driveshaft on my 2000 Ranger. I understand Ford joints are Spicer. Are these the best or is better available? Would the Ford joints be cheaper than the Spicer? And finally, what would I expect to pay for them and where do I get them? I'm not running a modified truck. They are just squeeking. It has 65000 miles on the stock ones and I highly doubt that I will get that kind of wear from Precision joints. I never have before. The Precision is all that I can get local and the nearest Ford dealer is an hour away. Thanks.

maybe they just need to be greased. are you getting any vibrations? is there any play in the driveshaft? if you think the precision joints will last longer, then by all means get them.
