U-joint # ?

[KenzMan]

Been trying to figure out the u-joint number for my forward rear shaft on my old reo deuce . I came up with a spicer # 5-115x from a local truck shop by the measurements I gave them , I am wondering if that is correct . He wants me to bring it in before he orders it because it is $250 . Someone please tell me this is crazyness .

OD Iron has a replacement Ujoint for around $36.

We need a "daffy duck" smiley for times like this.

Thats a pretty steep price difference between the two.

Steep , more like vertical , right off the charts . I found another shop close to me with the same one by Spicer for $75 which I thought was a little more reasonable .

Sometimes they think they see you coming.

While looking for a yoke to put on a transmission, I got prices that were WILDLY different for the same part#. It pays to shop around.
