It might be just as well to see if you can find a used complete one and you could try this Cat dealer in Pa. that has a used parts branch. They are Cleveland Bros. and the # is (724) 325-9478 and ask for Dean Tressler. They are out in the western part of the state but not sure but think they are more in the southern part of western Pa.
Buy a pair of new cardan joints.
Later Bob
Chip... the u-joint is a 6H2577, 8 bolts to the flanges are 6H7868,
1/2NF x 2 1/8. 8 bolts to the plate (center piece) 0S1579 1/2NF x 2
The plate is a 3H8141, discontinued, as is the 2H8357 assembly. Ed

I have are 3H6104 for the joints and 3H8142 for the cap screws, but they may be the old numbers.
Thanks Ed.
