A little info for you regarding the rear u-joints on 2003 & up Dodges and Chevy or GMC trucks with the AAM u-joints. These u-joints are 4.187 in width and 1.375 cup diameter. They are made my AAM or Neapco. Spicer makes one with the same overall length and cup diameter but the cup length and main body width are different. The Spicer's will not fit in place of the AAM joints. I saw a dealership price of $90. Standard parts was able to get the Neapco replacement part No. 3-0486 for about $45 a piece. These are not greaseable and my rear joint failed at 41,000 miles. Luckily I caught it failing before it let go. Tom Wood is working on sourcing a greaseable joint. It's definitely one to keep a spare of for the road trips.
Here's some info:
