On the brands mentioned, you'd likely get some Chinese piece. If you took it to a powertrain distributor and matched it up with something like a Spicer piece, you'd have OEM quality- without the anal discomfort of a visit to the Mercruiser parts counter.
On the other hand, how much f-ing around can a guy do to save himself $20?

price was not the motive, I needed a set pronto and could not wait to order, merc, omc,volvo,imco,konrad, don't make there u-joints, one call to rockwell and got the number, picked up a set at local parts store, with rockwell's # on the joint. there was no difference from the one's I removed.

Glad you found what you needed.
That was really a different question. Merc used the rockwell cross bearing for years.
I agree with Chris they cross referenced duplicates are not worthy in a boat.
