Added to my todo list. Anything in particular that I'd be looking for, other then just metal/debris?

Called, waiting for approval on the national tire account to replace the remaining 4.

I can get all 5 (not 6 as mentioned in the OP) U-Joints (Spicer brand) shipped to my home for about $675 which is currently well within my budget and changing them out is easy enough with my own tools. It may be early, but I see it as cheap insurance.
