URGENT - 1987 Dakota need parts info

I hope someone out there in Dakota land can help.

I just bought a 1987 with a carburated V6. It has
rack and pinion steering. The body is great.

But I have a big problem with the steering
components.

The lower U-joint was a little loose. A repair
shop took the steering shaft apart and now we
can't find any new replacement parts in Canada
that will fit and the old stuff can't be put
back in. The parts that dealers have in stock
are not quite the same. They talk about some parts being 1986.

The truck was made in the 6th month of 1986.

Any advice would sure be appreciated.

Thanks, Bill (stuck in Toronto)
