Autozone U-Joints?
Once I get my rear shaft removed I'm thinking about replacing both U-Joints. Running cheap at the moment so I'm considering Autozone brand U-Joints... against my greater judgement but they do come with a reasonable warranty. AZ sells them for $12 each. Should I go ahead and buy them from Autozone or pay AB $85 for two u-joints shipped? Anyone ever use Autozone joints in their Rover before?

"I got all the parts I needed for my driveshaft rebuild from advance auto for ~$75 total if I recollect correctly.
Here are the parts and codes
U-Joints:
Neapco PN 1-005
-Coded for a 1993 Volvo 240
Double Cardan CV Ball Seat Repair Kit/ Center Bearing:
Neapco 7-0081NG
-Coded for a 1989 Dodge Dakota 2.5 Liter
All the parts are high quality American made PDQ brand, in a Neapco box (apparently as these parts are not high volume, they are all made domestically by PDQ for sale as both Neapco and PDQ)"
From what I've read autozone uses chinese parts, Advanced Auto uses US made, higher quality parts. Not much more money than autozone either.
