Westfield SEI/SEIW drive shaft ujoints old type Question.

Who knows what Ujoints were used for the drive shafts/half shafts in the 80's/90's westfields with independend rear suspension (SEI SEIW) that used the escort mk2 english diff in the westfield casing?
I need to replace the u joints in the drive shafts but dont know the exact size for them .

Cap is about 24mm, length approx 60mm or so . Westfield dont supply them anymore.
companies like Bailey Morris may be able to supply them but than id like to know the exact size or maybe another application that was used for these U/J.

Who has been into this and can help?

It was a standard "Hary Spicer" needle roller UJ you need to chheck the measurements accurately you need the the width across the end caps I think you will find they are 23.8mm and 61.30mm ---- same size as early Escort prop shaft and Triumph Herald, MGB , and many other including some Volvo 140. GKN part numbers K5-GB50 or K5-LGB80 also Unipart GUJ115 it availble with or without a grease nipple.
Rimmer brothers should have them.
