u joint straps at pinion yoke...are there ANY aftermarket ones?
i want to replace the stock U-Joint straps that hold the rear U-Joint to the pinion yoke with aftermarket ones.
i cant find them ANYWHERE. i figured the next best thing was brand new ones (and new bolts) from GM, so i went and got them.
moroso makes U-Joint "girdles", but none are available for the 10 bolt.
what do you guys think? has anyone seen beefier ones? i mean, maybe they are not necessary. probly not, considering that there are NONE available from the aftermarket that i have seen.
any info would be great. thanks.

If nooone here chimes in, might want to check some better LS1 boards too, like ls1tech.com. Some of those max effort 4th gen guys run/ran 10 bolts into the low 10s and 9s just for the power/weight savings.

Find out who to talk to to get access to the shop yourself. Likely they'll just make you go through a brief instructional session and you're set. Usually it is intended for school work though, but you can figure out how to relate it I'm sure.
