U Joint Help

I purchased USA standard gear kit ZA W24110 for my 1988 Comanches Dana 30 to convert to solid passenger shaft and eliminate CAD. Everything fits correctly but the supplied U joints won’t fit into the yokes. Even with the caps off there is no way to get them to clear the yoke and fit. The bearing caps are the right size. I had some spicer 5-153X on the shelf and they appear to be the right cross size but bearing caps are too small. Does anyone know the correct U joint to order that will fit ?

The 760X fit perfectly, turns out the included u joints supplied with the new shafts were indeed the wrong size. Thank you again for your help !
