I use Spicer myself. I generally Ebay them, lots of driveline shops selling on there these days.

I like the Life solid series, no issues yet.

If you do your own maintenance AND do it well.......get the ones with zerk fittings. They last a very long time if you give them a few pumps of grease at every oil change. Sometimes the tire needs to be rotated for zerk access, which causes the speedy places to miss/bypass it forcing you to deal with worn out parts.
