ball kit for the universal joint

89 351

I am in the middle of changing my two u-joints that sit right behind the t-case attached to the drive shaft going to the rear end. After removing the u-joints I noticed that their is this spring in the middle of the yoke closes to the t-case and it goes inside of this ball that has the pin bearings just like the bearings on the u-joints. These pins are all worn out and chewed up. Is their a kit for this or do I have to go to the dealership and buy the whole yoke. Please help I am with out a vehical.
