Hooking up steering w/ camaro IFS

So, I am getting dangerously close to being able to start and drive the '59. My graft is done and I am mounting the rad and getting ready to break in the engine. I have to plumb the brakes and hook up steering So, I already have the bearing from classic parts to utilize my factory column. I will cut the outer part of the column and slip the bearing in and tack it, i supose. Hopefully a bit of a tack won't cook the bearing. What did you guys that retained your column and use this bearing do here? So, I have a straight shot to the camaro steering box. I just need to hook one to the other with a short shaft of of the camaro box and a u-joint connecting the factory column shaft to the new shaft coming off of the camaro box.

1-Where is a good place to buy the u-joints(nothing fancy, just functional)
2-is there a convienient kit?
3-can you guys post pics of what you did so I can get a good idea of how I want to do mine?

Thanks, Nik
