Post subject:  Front U-joint is loose

I changed the u-joints on my '68 Dart yesterday and I noticed that the cups that go in the yoke where not very tight. I just tapped them out after pulling the retaining clips.

When I installed the new joint, I had to press in the half that goes on the drive shaft, but the yoke half was loose. I was able to push them into place with my hands.

I guess I better go shopping for a new yoke. Any shopping tips for this part?
