I did recommed that the Guy with the W201 go there and see if they had a U-jont for his vehicle but I also recommend that ounce he found the part number he use it to see if he could cross reference it at his favorite parts place.

Well, when you get the U-joints post the info. I bought a GMB U-joint. Your oder info indicates you should get a U-joing made by GKN.
I probably wont be installing it in the near future but considering the options I thought it would be good to have the alternative on hand. It would be interesting too know if a slight "detente" is a big deal. I can't say that I've noticed that in other MB DSs I've had apart. Anyway thanks for posting your work and the tip on the whereabouts of the U joints. I accidentally separated a DS once (unmarked) and had to get another. Luckly a freind had one that I got cheap.
