Is this another name for driveshaft? If so what is wrong with the one you have? It has been my experience that the front joint usually goes out around 150k miles. They are not a replacable type joint but I know it can be done by a shop because when I pulled mine out of the SE that is exactly what a previous owner had done. I had one out of my last parts car I would have given you, but I did not save it (I have to quit doing that ).

Try the first gen for sale/wanted and the NW forum. I am sure you will be able to find one.

I think I've got a driveshaft laying around at the other house. Nothing wrong with it, just an extra. You can have it for shipping cost from CA . I'll check tomorrow when I'm over there and then bring it down here.
