Aren't they also with the "flex"-joint? If so, you can buy the flex joint at, oh, say, AutohausAZ. and other places.........for around $50, last time I looked.

The front and rear flex discs are sold as single pieces. And no one that i have found will touch the u joint because it is "staked" in. removal and replacement of which requires rebalancing and no one will touch it. the dealer wants a around $1000 for an entire driveshaft but i found a place in TX that sold me one for $367 shipped with core return postage plus a $60 core charge. that was the best i found, for anyone else looking. the flex discs i needed i got from autohausaz and performance parts for reasonable prices.
