Frank,

The custom car and street rod crowds have a good list of suppliers of steering u-joints. Why not contact one of those companies? For example, these guys:

or these:

I have two customers who spend a lot money here keeping their vans in tip-top shape and now they are in need of that pesky power steering U-joint that has gone Unobtainum.   So, I see this add over on the Samba:  <http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=957480>  Anyone have any experience with this ?  Sure would be better FOR ME to have a couple on the shelf especially during the Spring, Summer & Fall months.  I have tried to have machine shops in the Ottawa area rebuild them, no luck !
