Default Steering shaft parts needed

Hey guys,
I'm looking for rebuild parts for the steering shaft on my '92 W250, mostly the bottom collar portion that connects to the steering box. Anyone know a good place to source parts? The local parts store have told me they don't carry it. The repair shop wants about $200 to rebuild it. Thanks guys.

I just took one from a second gen and made it work, little bit of modifying the splined ends and it has been quite reliable.

92 w250 i notcied you have a 6" lift on your truck. instead of spending that much money on a rebuilt one i would look into a borgeson steering shaft with two rag joints since you have a larger lift. i believe there a little over 250.00 guys have bought them on here alot and love em. just some food for thought

Ok, thanks for the insight guys. I wasn't looking for a used one, just the parts to rebuild mine. But I'll look into those options. Who is a dealer or vendor for Borgeson or do I need to contact them directly to make sure the application fits mine?

Yes I see there are many different vendors. Also several different styles. I believe I need the one with the rag joint at the top end and the u joint at the bottom end. Anyone have any idea which one? I think the one Arizona Redneck posted is the same one I'm looking at through a different vendor. I hate to drop $200 and it be the wrong one. Thanks again.
