Ok, so I broke a universal joint..... no problem, right? I go to remove the bolts and straps to remove the drive shaft and 2 of the bolts don't wanna budge. I round them off. No problem, right? I'll just extract and buy some new ones at my local auto parts store. Here's the problem. None of my local auto parts stores carry these bolts and they tell me, "Good luck finding those". Are there any other options besides going to a junkyard and acquiring some old bolts that will probably do the same thing next time I need to replace the U joint?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks for the link. Went to the site and found them in 2 seconds. I googled the crap out of those bolts and came up with nothing. I guess I need to work on my googling skills.

pepboys auto has them in the HELP (motormite) section thats where i got mine from

 

Thanks for the help. I'd much rather get them in town today than have to wait a few days for them to arrive. It's my daily and my toy.

 

While you are at it, get some new straps. Once they are used, they stretch and can let a u joint go under torque. It is not just a myth, I had several drive shafts depart on me in my Power Wagon before I caught on.
