If you have a dial indicator you can make them easily. Once it is cut to length and and the yoke is pressed back in (make sure you have the u-joints aligned with each other at the ends), bolt it back into your rig. Have someone slowly rotate the tires while you watch the dial indicator. Get it running as close to true as possible. I usually get them within .010" and they run good even on the street. Then weld it up making sure to make small welds alternating around the tube so it doesn't pull too far to one side. I keep checking it with the indicator and weld at any high spots to pull them back.
