Most people tend to recommend Spicer brand.
Also, I believe the only way you'll get greaseable joints in the axles is if they're the flat style fitting, rather than having the nipple. Because the one's with the nipple will get caught when the joint rotates/pivots.

just go get a spicer 5-760x from napa. and since you're locked, buy full circle snap rings and grind the ears of your shaft a bit. 760's and full circle clips are a pretty decent upgrade over stock. definitely worth the time to grind the ears. I'd replace and upgrade both sides at the same time while you're at it
new and shiny on top. old and crappy on bottom

CTM's.
Check em out. You'll never break a u-joint.
The world could end and this u-joint would be just fine.

I highly recommend these. Way less than the CTM's.

Yeah. Those are $100 more than the OX u-joints. Check them out. I don't personally know anyone who's ever broke one. They're made about 15 mins from my house and I know a few people who abuse them! Just giving options. I'm saving my pennies.
