Larry, 4x4 owners seem to do alot of modifications to their drivelines and there are a fair number of shops that specialize in custom driveshafts. I bet one of these places would be able to find a replacement part if one is available. Or maybe make you a whole new setup is necessary. You can find ads for these places in 4x4 magazines like "Four Wheel Drive & Sport Utility" magazine. Good luck.
