If you didn't have this trouble before the u-joint issue, then I think a look inside that trans is in order...
In 50 years of messing with '833s, I've only found two causes for "popping out of gear"...
> Shift linkage maladjusted so the slider isn't 100% engaged
> Worn dog teeth on the speed gear (in your case, the main drive pinion). You have to look carefully, kind of a tapered or diagonal wear pattern.
Hard to imagine, though, how a bad u-joint could cause either of these defects. I'm thinking -- long shot -- bent / twisted mainshaft?

It was a rather violent failure. I kinda felt like I was in a rock polisher (except for the tumbling over and over part).
