I researched the hell out of it, couldn't find any firm answer on aftermarket joints.
General consensus has been swap it column and all, get rid of the death spear and have all the parts fit.

The way prices are on the B type joint, when available, a whole used column might be about the same price

Steering U joints

Hi,
I too had trouble finding aftermarket u-joints for the datsun, but to my surprise I went to the local car dismantler and found that steering ujoints from a nissan pulsar (Australian Name) would fit no problems and are of good quality.

Hope this helps
