    yup feels like a flat tire= ball n trunion is shot, gets worse when down shifting too! Its an obsolite part most early mid 60s dodge cars ect had them. Once in a while a rebuild kit showes up on fee-bay or craigslist. around $100+ dollars. I had my driveshaft modified for a u joint at a driveshaft shop. Cost me around $ 230. Any good driveshaft shop can do it.

    i'm with ben on this one.......spend more time looking for an old slip joint style front u-joint than a boot for your ball and trunion. i have an old shaft with one on it but i don't think i could get it off without it falling apart. the cross pin is usually siezed and very hard to remove.

    If you really want to keep the ball and trunion check in A parts for sale I think they still have it and the link is good.
