Just order a recall yoke from JNZ, (or your local mits/chysler dealership)

It'll come with the u-joint already installed, and is much cheaper than buying the u-joint by itself

[edit]

*most* of the aftermarket u-joints are equipped with a zerk fitting (for greasing). They are gun-drilled thru the crosses so the grease can get to all the cups.

They are considerablly weaker than the o.e. units.

I've seen this on other vehicles as well. You can improve your chances by paying attention when you install them and making sure the area with the zerk will be under compression load not tension load.

I bet NAPA carries them for DSMs and they are the same. But the yoke recall kit from JNZ is your best bet. That's what I used
