Who's got the best replacement shaft assembly for a stock height k5 with stock 350ci, th350, 203 setup.

It's been clanking into gear pretty good here the last few trips out and after crawling under to look at it I've found the slip yoke section seems to be far too loose. Rattles pretty good at that area shaking by hand.

Any old eBay shaft, AutoZone, not really looking for a high dollar super shaft.

ETA: I see Denny's driveshafts are $390 for what I think I need. Is it worth the extra coin.
