Breaking u-joint

Is there anyway to repair a screwed up rear output yoke, the raduis for the cap bearing is flared out towards the center of the yoke causing the u-joint to wobble. Money is a little tight right now and I need a quick fix for little or no money. I've heard of people putting a nickle (5 cents) in the radius and forcing it down into the radius to support the u-joint. HELP I'm busting u-joints about every 5 days.

You should be able to pick up a used yoke from a junkyard for a little more then what the u-joint costs.
