IF you need to replace the centerball and stuff (normally they are ok) you can go
www.rockforddriveline.com (http://www.rockforddriveline.com)

FYI--- Our FSJ's are SPICER 1310 series

Here is a quick link to P/N # 404

http://www.rockforddriveline.com/1310pg4.htm

I would buy new U-joints for the H-yoke... disassemble and clean it REALLLY good (don't lose the spring or needle bearings out of the centering ball).

Re-assemble with new U-joints (NOT NEAPCO!!!) I have had good luck with Brut Force.

Pay attention to the Grease Zerks (if the joint has them) on the joints when re-assembling... you should orient the zerks for ez lubrication.
