Intermediate steering shaft replacement - Too much Play?

Gotta love the ignore feature. Really cleans up a thread.

 

Looks like i started a beefin thread. Regardless if its OEM or not its in a bad spot on the truck with no covering or shields of any kind. But i have to agree with EatSleepTacos because the aftermarkets looked rather sketchy no mayter which one i looked at. I would rather buy an oem than a rebuild because of the chance of a aftermarket company fucking up. If i knew it was a solid company sure i wouldve bought it, im just going to make sure i cover this joint really good and hopefully i can be a happy camper cor the rest of my trucks life.
