Welcome new guy.
You can get u-joints at Powertrain Industries.
Here is the site:

https://www.powertrainindustries.com/se ... rch_by=allI don't know where else you can get them.
You will also need a 20mm reamer. You need to run the reamer through to get out any burrs or misalignment. If you don't install it right it will blow up again.
You will also need to make shock savers. If you don't build them you will end up bending the shock when the u-joint breaks. In the attachment below is a picture of my shock savers. The chain must be the correct length so that it does not bind up.
If you replace the shocks you can NOT be longer 15 1/4" or you will get u-joint bind. No one has found a cheap replacement for them yet. You must buy the expensive Works shocks.
The rear spring rate on the shocks is too high and so very stiff rear suspension. Replace them with 155 lb springs. Also run high octane gas. Many of us run Avgas (airplane fuel) If you run cheap gas you will blow your Engine.
