If i were not to go the TODDCO route, where is a good place to buy a rebuild kit for my current one...

Also if mine is creaking and groaning down there, is it worth it to rebuild it? Or do you think that damage may have already been done?

There isn't a rebuild "kit".
I, as well as others, have posted the required Neapco and Precision part numbers many times on this forum.
Depending on where you live (you don't have it listed) Advance Autoparts is a good local place to get them.
Do not get them at Advance Auto.

The damage happens when it breaks and bashes a hole in your transmission/t-case.

Rebuild it or get it rebuilt now.

Well i know that it hasn't failed on me yet, but what i am asking is that if it already creaking and groaning could it have damaged some components making a rebuild not worth it?

Het Tom just curious why you say not to go to advance to get the bearings?Btw the advance auto Neapco bearing number number is 1-0005 and the napa center ball kit is a precisoion 617 replacement ball kit.If your at all mechanically inclined you can diy for around $80 bucks but if not Todd is the way to go.

Because Autozone used to carry the Neapco (boxed as PDQ) 1-0005 u-joints but switch to chinese u-joints but kept the Neapco/PDQ numbers. So they aren't really Neapco u-joints. FWIW, not all PDQ were Neapco make, but the 1-0005 were.

Advance Auto parts is about the cheapest place to get them now. The also carry the Neapco centering kit.
Whatever you get, make sure it has all the parts. Someone reported getting a Precision kit that was missing something.
The red thing in the photo is just a shipping cover for the spring in the center ball.

as you say, $278 for a reman is not worht it either... so it's either get it rebuilt at ToddCo (I'm kinda surprised they don't read on this forum), go to a local shop, or the $310 ebay option...
I would still go to a new, more HD drive shaft then on of the no name, made in China, drive shafts.
