Default U-Joints

Does anyone know where one can buy Greasable U-joints to buy, to replace original non-greasable ones? What kind of time and effort will go into replacing these? Is this something I could do or do I need to have it done at a local shop? I have replaced the U-joints in a 79 Blazer.

Mike,
With you being a retired Service Manager, do you do work from your garage or give hands on training?

Thanks,
George Trieste
Castle Rock, CO

Auto Zone can get 2 or 3 different brands, as for what is required, I won't do them cause they are a pain in the drive line to rebuild.
Are you a member of Solihull, the local Rover club and are you going to the clubs dinner/get together, this evening?

I didn't even know there was a local rover club. Where is the event held, what time and how do I join?

Do you recommend a local shop in the Castle Rock area to have these rebuilt?

Call me and I'll give you a quick run down. We are one of the largest Rover Clubs in the US.
This is late notice, but if you can get off early, meet me in Parker and follow us over.
