Remove the rear U-Joint and be very careful not to loose caps or any needle bearings. Uses lock rings to hold it in place. Tape it together with duck tape. Now pull the drive shaft out of the transmission and remove the front U-Joint from the driveshaft and replace it. Reinstall in reverse order.

The cost to replace a universal joint on a 2500 Dodge truck will vary depending on if you replace it yourself or take it to a shop. The cost for the part can vary depending on location and can cost from about $12.00 to $20.00. At a shop, the cost will include the part plus labor.
No, they usually have something called a CV (constant velocity) joint which is sort of same, same but different.
On front engine/rear wheel drive cars there is always a universal joint on the drive shaft. If your looking to buy one, you could check with your dealer's parts department. They either will have one, or can order you one.
