Steve Heimsoth(heimsoth) found a great replacement part for the Recirculating Ball (RB) steering shaft.

The recirculating ball u-joint is the same as a Kawasaki ATV driveshaft u-joint. The part number is 49050-1055. The genuine Kawasaki one is $35-$50 but an aftermarket one is $14.99 here www.mfgsupply.com/m/c/K158759.html
