Steering column U-Joints bad--sources?

So I've had a lot of feedback from the steering wheel lately. Usually not so much on the highway as in town. Anyway, they aren't sure but said it is the steering column U-joints that are starting to rust. Does this sound reasonable? It only happens after the car has been driving for a while, and is most noticable in town. When braking, accelerating from a stop, and over bumps in the road. It doesn't make much noise, but you can sure feel it in the wheel.
Anyway, I guess I'll have to buy the whole steering column. Where does anyone recommend buying used or rebuilt ones? Dealers price from Saab is $405, I'm not paying that.
Thanks much!
Tyler
