Rag joint or steering coupler rebuild?

I’d like to rebuild the ragjoint on my 86 4runner. I’ve been searching for more than an hour and can’t find a repair kit for Toyota listed anywhere.
i think the Toyota Parts Overstock shows “flexible coupling” for like $80. Has anyone rebuilt there’s with a Dorman kit that has the same bolt hole locations as the Yota? There must be a cross out there...I don’t want to take it apart to get the measurements and render the truck undriveable now that the nice weather is here.

I don''t know about rebuilding the coupling as I have never needed to do so.

I would be hesitant about using a Dorman kit because generally their parts are quite low quality.
