The problem with re-using the original stock half shafts is that many of them are milled incorrectly and do not hold the U joint caps snugly. Before you order just new U joints I would check and see if any of your U joint caps have been spinning in the yokes. Some of caps might even be spot welded in like mine were to keep them from spinning.

It still amazes me some of the Mickey Mouse repair work you find on these beautiful cars. It makes you wonder!
