So I've almost got all my bits of kit to replace every U joint in the XJ and go to a hack n tap SYE with front driveshaft in the rear. However, Amazon now tell me the slinger that protects the centering ball in the double cardan joints (Spicer part 2-86-418) won't be here til October due to shipping delays.

Anyone know who might stock these locally?

Or if I could possibly get away with just re-using the old ones, likely original with over 300K Km on them?

I bought mine locally from a bearing place, just gave them the part, it was the whole joint though and when I had the XJ so at least 4 years ago I think.

Cheers

They're not local, but have a look on here http://www.rockauto.com/. They're reasonably priced and they have fast shipping.

Thanks guys, ended up ordering them from dennysdriveshaft.com for probably the cheapest I've found them, but still had to order minimum US$50 so ordered some spare unis.
For the record Rock Auto don't keep these on their own, just included with non-genuine (such as AC Delco) rebuild kits that are the ball and seal etc. didn't want to run the risk or mess around with the rebuilds too much.
