Bicounty,
I replaced the U-Joint in my late '49 1/2 ton Chevrolet Truck. I got mine from Classic Chevy Truck Parts. NO NEEDLE BEARINGS! It came with the bushings. I'm with Uncle Brad and Pre'68 Dave, it looks seated correctly, but I would definitely be concerned about those needle bearings and staying in place. The front u-joint moves side to side just a little bit, but I would be concerned about the needle bearings slipping out or breaking and working there way into the transmission output bearing. If it were me, I would get the U-Joint with the bushings like the original. Just a suggestion.
Tim
