if you have Merreitor drive shafts then you need Merritor U-joints. - if you have a Spicer drive shaft, then use Spicer u-joints.

Not sure exactly what drive shafts are there, but the pete dealer was gonna supply Spicer products. They supplied a Spicer center/carrier bearing in the past. Those I mentioned above are listed as replacements for the meritor u-joints.

Is there a significant difference? There's a lot that's still new to me and I'm trying to learn as I go. Did some more searching and I can get the meritor parts at nearly the same cost as the spicer. So don't think price is a factor in my question here.
