Where is the best place to source out the Spicer U-Joint straps for the half shafts and prop shaft?
I have a new diff going in with 3.73 so I'll have to be buying 6 straps and 12 bolts.
OEM Clamp# 04428723
OEM Bolt# 06502581
Has anyone found the Spicer part number or Dorman alternative so I can just get these from any of the big box auto stores? I'm sure it has to be the same as another truck/car?

It's a Dana Spicer 1350 series. Cheapest place I've found is the dealer. U-joints elsewhere tho.

This would be a great time to put in fresh u-joints, I had one start going south at 12K.

Being located in LA I'd suggest UNITRAX in Anaheim. They usually have all the parts readily available. ..

JonB has gotten them to me many times... very quickly and far below dealer prices. Newer bolts may be Allen head instead of hex.

I can't believe this much though goes in to the purchasing of $4 items now.

Cool thanks for the replies. With Amazon prime and free 2-day shipping this looks like my best/easiest option

Anyone know if poly urethane diff mount bushings are available or part number while I have the diff out? Would be nice to upgrade the old rubber bushings at the same time.

You have to consider that cost can be a significant factor if it takes an hour's take home pay just to buy a couple of bolts ! :p
